Here’s the reason I haven’t posted much this week. Its the buyers guide that I’ve been working on. There’s too much confusion about what is and what isn’t a ultra mobile PC and what a ultra mobile PC can and can’t do. For that reason, I’ve put together as much info as I can in order to help those that are new into the ultra mobile PC market, those that might be looking at the devices for the first time and those that might be considering one for purchase. Maybe a few mainstream journalist might want to take a look too! (Maybe not, they’ll moan at all my grammatical errors!)
Its not deeply technical (you can read some of the other articles for the really technical stuff) and its a long article, but as I mentioned in it, if you’re looking to buy a UMPC, you’ll probably want to understand as much as you can of the ultra mobile PC category. For those that don’t already have a mobile PC, its available as a PDF version to printout and read on the bus!
Anyway, to all the readers that know exactly what a ultra mobile PC is, I invite you to take a look and comment if you’ve got the time. To all those discovering this post while on your google learning journey through the zillions of UMPC-related web-pages, I hope it helps you make the right decision and if you have any further questions, don’t hesitate to email me at info@carrypad.com. If I can get through the spam that that email address is now going to attract having published it on a web page, i’ll answer all your queries as quickly and as well as I can.
One extra point, the Wikipedia definition of Ultra Mobile PC is Microsoft focused and could do with a re-write (in my opinion.) If I get enough positive feedback, i’ll re-format some of the article for Wikipedia.

Steve /Chippy.
