[...] If you have questions, I’ll be happy to try and answer them in this forum thread but please don’t ask software specific questions. Full specifications and links to other videos and stories are available on the M528 page. One article and video that I will recommend is the one that UMPCFever did in May. They had the Aigo version of this device. Check it out via this article. [...]

GREAT video, few questions:

How is the graphical acceleration? Will it play games like C&C: Generals Zero Hour, or PES6?

Can you try installing the Windows tablet edition (the one where u don’t need a mouse and can click with ur fingers instead?)

i think its more likely that aigo have not prioritized windows xp on these as intel have focused on moblin for mid’s, as mid’s are supposedly a “lesser” cousin of the umpc…

Given that several key things don’t work when XP is installed, would that mean they never will work because MS isn’t about to create those drivers and aigo/whoever is probably prohibited from doing so too?

wait, this device has no built-in pointer device? I assumed that thingy on the right hand side was a mouse device but it seems it is just a “smart” button. how disappointing.

the more i read about this kind of stuff, the more i think that bug labs should really make haste and come out with a screen that can cover one side of their base and a slider keyboard (with tilt ability perhaps) that can the fitted to the other side.

i just wonder how one will slip the mobile network connectivity into that
