I thiought that it might compete with the DualCor but the 770 is not what I expected. http://tuxtops.com/node/501 What does make it really cool iss that tttthe 770 is running Linux. I consider it a mini linux PC that you could take around with you anywhere to hack away onnn. It is conssssidered to be a nteneeet tabbblet. But to use it you need a wifi connection or a phone in additon to get it a connection. When I first saw this think Iassuemed it wouuuuld have stannndalone internet capabalities as well as have phone functionality. The fact thaaat it takes 55 seconds to boot would also be a huge problem for me. I am impressed that Nokia put this bad boooooy out and will hhhave to keepp my eyes open foooor what is coming next.

I need to check out the specs for that nokia 700. I have a feeling that it is not even going to come close to competing, it probably just looks similar. Damn, thats nuts.

The dimensions are 6.5" x 3.3" x 1.2", oh well I was close :) It has two CPUs running at 1.5 GHz (for Windows XP) and 400MHz (for Windows Mobile). Here is <a href="http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=5709" rel="nofollow">the article</a> where I got the above info.

I’m glad to see one more Handtop PC on the market besides OQO. -- http://www.MiniPCs.com This looks like a very promising machine. I’m glad to see one more Handtop PC on the market besides OQO.

Getting the raw facts out in the open. The real problem with this thing, for me, would be that I would probably use it as a phone via. holding it up to my ear. Nothing like having a tablet pc straped to the side of my head so one can make a phone call. Thats the Bucho gift.. Getting the raw facts out in the open.

That is exsclusively what I use on my P910a cell phone (since I removed the thumb keypad). Since there are USB ports you could plug in a full size keyboard (or any size for that matter) to do some serious typing. Since the screen is measured at 5" diagonally that would put the screen dimensions at roughly 4.35" wide and 2.475" tall if the screen has 16:9 format (it looks close to that). So, I would estimate the device measure something like 6" by 3" by 1.5". Not bad for a handheld computer. I imagine some thing like a PSP but a bit thicker and not as wide. The PSP measures 170 mm (L) x 74 mm (W) x 23 mm (D) or roughly 6.7" by 2.9" by 0.9". I’m sure that there would be some sort of on screen keyboard.

I don't understand how you type on the thing though. I also can't tell how big it is from looking at the pictures, but maybe that's because I am looking at it on my treo..... I obviously need a dualcor. that’s really impressive. I don’t understand how you type on the thing though.
