However, the Viliv S5 looks far more affordable than any of the Samsung products. Oh, yea that XNote. However, the Viliv S5 looks far more affordable than any of the Samsung products.

Microsoft is slow and takes too much memory. If you can surf the net, hookup G3, gps, use open office, use wifi, what more would most business people need. No more dragging laptops around would be great. I see LLuon is going to be under $500.00, it does use Microsoft XP, so it does have one bad thing going for it and no GPS that I can see.

If the iPod Touch can do Bluetooth DUN, Intel and all others no longer need to bother. While all the MID and UMPC designers have not found a solution between size and usability, Apple did it, beautifully. MID like the ASUS 900A/HA have a big market, that's if they run XP and are MID (Intel calls the U820 as MID). This is the only MID Intel could have a real market, but, unfortunately, I heard that ASUS, Acer and Toshiba were going to chose QualComm platform. Aigo P8860 and M528 could have had a market if Intel would ever release XP drivers for them and get the price below $500. VIA did a huge mistake by increasing its new CPU's performance other than reducing its heat. Otherwise Intel would have been already out of this market. If Intel really wants this market, it has to work with MS to keep XP alive. There is no other way around.

I'm glad Yukyung finally launched the Viliv S5 which they are going to fully launch at CES, I guess. If Samsung does have a new umpc/mid for CES, I hope it will be as cool as the S5.

Some roadmaps indicate all Atom-derivatives(Netbooks/Nettops/UMPCs/MIDs) will ALL go to Moorestown-derivative devices. I'm also unsure about lack of PCI support. Perhaps the super low power ones but I'm not sure about the rest. Some talk of even supporting SATA which Menlow doesn't support for lower power. Not sure about Menlow existing along with Moorestown.
