   so this is a kansas paper with an article from charlotte, NC about a san fran based company who isn't making any money but people still have faith. How do you find these things.

   no comparison

   1/3 of the price for twice the features of OQO. I know where my money will go.

   Okay, so now that everyone is realizing that all the buzz and hype over the last week for the Microsoft Origami project really wasn't deserved at all (it's just a mini-tablet, people), How can you say that! After all, we’re talking about a mini-tablet with a TOUCH SCREEN in a New Size – something that’s never existed in the storied history of mankind. Move over, sliced bread, it’s the Origami project! Years from now you can tell your great-grandchildren that you were there when this technological marvel graced our presence. Thankfully it wasn’t in a shiny white box from apple, the excitement would have been too much to bear.

   I hate to dispute this quote " After all, we’re talking about a mini-tablet with a TOUCH SCREEN in a New Size – something that’s never existed in the storied history of mankind." but that exactly OQO's point.
   
   The OQO is a better form-factor, with a TOUCH SCREEN option. The biggest problem is the price is much tougher to swallow for home users and enterprises will treat this as a new form of PDA (wait and see personal growth before we adopt type of approach).

   When I first saw the story I thought that Microsoft must have bought out DualCor's cPC idea... I wonder how it'll compare.

   Are you kidding?

   This thing looks awesome. Its just big enough that you can watch video and pictures on it. and with a full operating system. It may not have a huge hard drive or dvd player but it does have USB ports so link it with your PC and your set. The only down side i really see is that the battery life isn't that long, but look for that to change in the coming year. Buy a slingbox with it and you can watch your TiVo anywhere you get internet. Maybe I'm over looking some down sides but I think this thing will be awesome.

   Missing the point

   Microsoft and Intel are bringing credibility to this market by entering it.
   
   The are stating that there is a huge population that want an ultramobile PC.
   
   Definitions vary, but it's a full functioning PC that can be brought everywhere with you. Even the toilet...hehe
   
   OQO may be over priced for now, but they are trying to make changes to lower their cost and make it more affordable for the enterprise.
   
   I believe that most UMPCs and OQO will become the main PC device for people in the future.
   
   It's incredibly powerful to be able to have a full PC with you.

   River Rats Rafting Adventure

   During our five-day stopover in Rotarua, the girls and I were determined to squeeze in as many adventure activities as possible. At first, we were a bit overwhelmed by the extensive laundry list of adrenaline inducing sports to choose from. But after perusing several glossy brochures, comparing various packages and chatting with other backpackers at our hostel, our mission was clear - - sign up for a white water rafting trip with River Rats! One of the regions most popular companies, River Rats offers daily cruises down the printing Rangitiaki, Wairoa and Kaituna rivers, even taking on a few Grade V rapids along the way. But what really caught our attention, was the promise of a death-defying plunge straight over a 21-foot waterfall – which incidentally, is the highest commercially-operated drop in the world! Always up for a challenge, Amanda, Holly and I registered for the next scaffolding available time slot.
