I would recommend that they make it 4.25" wide by no more than 8" long then it would be more practical yet still long enough for a touch type keyboard.

I was certain I was going to get a UX380 when they went on sale here last year. Then I actually went to a Sony store and tried one. It was unusable - everything too small, and I have fairly small hands. I got lucky with the Gigabyte M704. I bought it without trying it first, and I have been very happy with the usability of that device. In this rapidly changing field, I have had that device for 7 months,and so far I still would not prefer any other device currently on the market. It seems like the best balance so far between cost, size,usability, and power. I think it is essential to get one’s hands on these UMPCs before using them.

I'm so glad that I waited until I could play with it in a SonyStyle store. The thing is beautiful, but the performance is total trash. It was very slow in the store, somewhat hard to read, and the XCROSS system was a little confusing. As such I still do most of my work on an Everun Note and more recently, I've dragged out my old Sharp Zaurus C3200. Yeah, I was very tempted to buy it before I had even seen it in the flesh.

The ultra-wide aspect screen was a feature of the older models too, and is fantastic for watching films. Unfortunately the ageing C1VE isn't powerful enough for modern video codecs at SD or HD resolutions. I'm in two minds right now as to whether I'll go for a P-Series. I cannot tolerate vista, and have been disappointed with VAIO build quality of late. £800 for the same spec as a netbook and 2-3 hour battery life is a lot to swallow, regardless of it's extreme compactness.

What a big mistake of Sony. And it was not just my opinion.All other people examining the divece had frustrations.
