“I need to start on the full report!” was the last line in this post ;-)

Buttons not prgrammable, screen colour is really nice (not bright enough for outside though), its on the market in Korea, resellers already working with Vega for EU and US, Direct3d is unlikely (not supported by the chipset), no zoom feature, OSK is resizeable (although has a strange focus behavior), it gets more into the ‘hot’ zone after a while, joypad is good but too loose for gaming. You can switch it into ‘cursor’ mode which might be better. I haven’t got the case. Stylus I haven’t used for 3 days now!

I’ll try and inlcude all these points in the review.

Regards and thanks for your comments.

The car series is nice but not exactly a review of the unit from every angle for the majority of us who want a pocket computer. <br/>Are all the buttons user programable? Is the screen color nice or just okay and does it have a contrast coating on it? <br/>Any idea when this is coming to market by either dynamism or other online stores? <br/>Do they plan on putting direct 3d compatibility in the retail store models? <br/>Is the on-screen keyboard resizable and is there a zoom feature for the screen? <br/>Did you find after long use that it was uncomfortable to hold because of weight and/or heat? <br/>Is the heat generated more in the warm versus the hot realm? <br/>How comfortable is the joypad for it for games? Responsive, too loose, or just right? How are the accessories for it like the protective case? Is the stylus easy to secure to the Vega?<br/>Sincerely, Jerry.

Hi Steve, are you still going to do a detailed write-up on the Vega? The car series is nice but not exactly a review of the unit from every angle for the majority of us who want a pocket computer.

Any idea when this is coming to market by either dynamism or other online stores?
Do they plan on putting direct 3d compatibility in the retail store models?
Is the on-screen keyboard resizable and is there a zoom feature for the screen?
Did you find after long use that it was uncomfortable to hold because of weight and/or heat?
Is the heat generated more in the warm versus the hot realm?
How comfortable is the joypad for it for games? Responsive, too loose, or just right? How are the accessories for it like the protective case? Is the stylus easy to secure to the Vega?
Sincerely, Jerry.
