Steve chippy! Thx for replying back! Your my umpc hero! Your always up to date with the latest umpcs and all, iv watched all your youtube videos! Anyway i hate netbooks i have a sony vaio ux280p which i love i know it got some harsh reviews because of its size and key size but i love its size its perfect and i think ahead of its time i wish sony still made them... Theyv moved onto the vaio P i believe thats the name... I think you did an unboxing vid of it or maybe it was someone else... Idk i watch all the umpc vids on youtube anyway i think that the vaio p is very nice other than the fact that its netbook style even tho i know sony tried to not use that word thats wat it is and the wide screen isnt the best tho the display did look beautiful then lastly it has vista which in my opinion isnt good for a umpc but that can be fixed. The two usb ports were nice tho. Even so i think sony should have stuck with the ux design. This had nothing to do with the viliv so sry but i got cot up in a rant! Im still amazed its you steve chippy! Thx Wow! Steve chippy! Thx for replying back! Your my umpc hero! Your always up to date with the latest umpcs and all, iv watched all your youtube videos!

So, im still waiting for something to come out (either tablet or slate, preferably tablet) I was considering this a year ago when they said it would have the Z540, 1.8ghz processor, or at least the Z530 1.6 Actually, I preferr the x70′s form factor, but the 1.3′s are too underpowered.

The S7 fits in nicely as an all-rounder UMPC but if you've got a netbook or even a laptop with you when you travel, the overlap in functionality is considerable. Let me guess…you have a netbook!

I prefer designs along the line of the wibrain and the sony ux series, handheld devices not saying that this isnt handheld!

No, in fact what I'm going to do is recommend that you research Purely Gadgets before you make your purchase and make your own mind up. (Google is a beautiful thing.)
