Eeek!
The Kohnjinsha UMPC isn’t going to do the UMPC segment any favors if it turns up looking like that, for over $800!
I’m usually very positive about any UMPC entering the market but I’m finding it very difficult with this one. Mouse pointer and stereo speakers are nice but surely there’s a prettier way to do it?

I agree Chippy. That thing is a little hard on the eyes.

Will try and get this in the DB asap. Specs are floating about here, on JKKMObile and Pocketables though.

I rather like the looks of it. Function over form.
I don’t, however like the internal specs.
I’d much rather have a Fujitsu U. It’s only an inch bigger, has a larger screen, more expansion options, and can be had for similar prices now.

Fail.
Apart from the fact that it’s not easy on the eye, it’s too big to be pocketable and much too small to enable productive working. A bad convergence in my opinion.

For that price it should be a razor thin convertible,

I don’t mind the looks, it’s just the size!
9 or 10″ is my sweet spot!

The Kohjinsha PA’s LCD SCREEN Frame is Swing that have only one stud to
easier Break if you have much open and close the netbook — I refer like
strong ClamShell type Like UMID-M1 and N5 Screen Frame Close and Open
