Many thanks. Went to Seoul hoping to get some best deal since the products are made in Korea. Alas, most of the dealers in Yongsan Electronics area have not even heard of the name. What a dissappointment !! Gentlrmen,

Land Wed, 23 Dec 2009 03:22:55 +0000 http://www.umpcportal.com/?p=10204#comment-29875 Hi, I bought my GO about a monthe ago and ...WOW. I was used to go on trip with my laptop and always complained about the weight and the space. The netbook was really the answer. I thought about going MAC with their Macair, but decide against it as I only need a MAC to work at home and in most of the place I go, PC are used so easier to stay PC. I like the key board. I was a bit worried about the size and I have relatively big hands. Guess what? So far I haven't misskeyed. The battery life is incredible. When I am not using my GO (during talks etc...) I put in stand by...doing so, I can use it the whole day and even wghen I go back to my hotel, more than 50% of the power is still present. So far a very good buy. Hi,

I think Viliv's biggest weakness is their slow time to market. They need to be faster and not worry about the proprietary software no one cares about or uses. They need the RAM to be expandable and have the 2.0ghz version out to market asap. They'll not only compete with netbooks but with notebooks like the Lenovo x200. I can't imagine anyone paying $800 for a 1gb ram netbook. Yes, I agree, this could put Viliv on the map.

I can't remember anything about an S5 with keyboard officialy from Viliv, just people saying that an S5 with keyboard would be great. Or maybe someone got mixed up and was talking about the S7.

Minimum should be 1280x960. As you got the top of the range model, you would also have paid a similar price to that of the Gigabyte T1028X. I think price will be an important factor, because at the prices mentioned ($800) you are in notebook territory.

Viliv is withholding price and availability info for now. We've seen a few different prototypes of the S10, the one that Chippy looked at in the IDF hand-on appeared to have a RAM access hatch on the bottom, but it is unclear whether or not that it was actually RAM access, and I've seen some of the prototypes which lack that hatch completely. I wouldn't be surprised if the S10 comes with no access hatches to RAM and HDD, just as the S7 did. Haha how did I know I’d see one of your comments on this article?
