>On the bright side - it has 8 gig of RAM and 128 gig of disk space, quite a few ports and a really nice screen. On the other hand, I wish it had a sd card slot and a built in web-cam (but my Viliv S5 does not have those, so no loss there) -- and I kinda wish that keyboard was detachable and I don't think it has built in GPS either - but since the keyboard doesn't detach guess I don't care about the GPS. At 7 inches I guess it's tiny enough to put in a pocket - a big pocket anyway - but I do wish it was a little bit smaller.

>..which is a better size and has a sd card slot -- any hey it's only like $150 cause it's on sale, so I went ahead and ordered one of those -- but with only 4gb of ram and 64gb of disk space (part of which is going to be eaten up by an Android partition) -- well I wish it had more power. This one has a lot of ports on it too which is good - but again no camera and no GPS and looks like the battery life is pretty short too. Arrggg!

>Anyone know a UMPC that's more along the lines of what I'm looking for? The power of the first one, in the size of the 2nd one, with a sd slot, camera, and gps? Or close to it that anyway??
