This is why I said initially that one needs to set down the priorities when designing such devices. In an era where we can squeeze all the information of a dvd in a tiny mini sd card, it doesn't make sense to include a whole dvd drive in the chassis of a umpc. With the price they sell them it would be better imho to include a cheapo external drive. And give us a device that is half as thick and half as heavy...

The Vye S41 (Kohjinsha SR8) is a unique UMPC (actually, Kohjinsha is about to introduce the 8.9" successor SX3) in that it includes a DVD drive. This takes some space untill somebody can find out a way to make optical drives that are 0.0mm thick. If you want a slimmer device, get one without a DVD drive. Kohjinsha and other manufacturers are offering a wide choice. As for the pros and cons of hardware buttons around the screen - this is a matter of personal choice (I also own an iPod touch and actually I would like to have a few "real" buttons, e.g. for volume control. It is quite a nuisance to have to unlock the screen, make sure that the iPod touch is rotated in the right direction to really show the volume bar, adjust the volume, wait until the screen has locked again so that there is no unwanted action when you slip it back into your pocket). And as you acknowledge yourself, the newer SX3 is using more of the available space for the screen. @john
