Pepper is too large for me (so are current UMPCs). The Vega is interesting in that out of the box it has 770-like battery life.

I think the HD objection is silly. Look at how many people carry iPods with HDs. That said, I wouldn't expect either device (V or i) to survive the 3 drops and one attempted theft like the 770 has!

I guess I must now trudge over to the poll thread. Seems it has doubled in size since my last access this morning. >unsheathing sword<
