EXACTLY. You need an adapter, you need to do OTHER stuff that average user is not going to do. You're still in "im a linux supergeek" mode..

USER EXPERIENCE mate..

Don't know what your talking about for the d-pad..it's not a d-pad at all.. right now its a mouse replacement or direction KEYS thing replacement..which is on the RIGHT of every regular keyboard. I'd be happy for it to stay if they put a mouse dot thing on the right (balance it out and make it MORE like a d-pad i suppose)

It's not an UMPC, marketing it as such would be misleading as people would think they can install windows on it.
No.. UMPC does NOT = "can install windows on it" mate, (wrong answer buzzer button on a game show)

UMPC stands for Ultra Mobile Personal Computer

and yes it is EXACTLY that.. a very bad computer (aka a computer from like the early 90s) but still a BLIMMIN COMPUTER mate

that's exactly what i got it for..its a very small computer in my freaking hand.

As opposed to an iPod touch which is a computer so BADLY DISABLED-by-design that THAT can only be considered a mobile entertainment device instead of an actual computer.

Oh and by the way, from APPLE INSIDER recently:

"Web market share for the iPod touch has tripled in just five months, outpacing even the iPhone among mobile devices"

See? the future is in the handheld COMPUTER that accesses the ever growing internet.. telephones are antiquated.

it IS a umpc dawg. it IS.. just from the early 90s or whatever.. it's almost as good as my very first DESKTOP PC which was literally (rough cubic inches calculation) around 750 TIMES LARGER THAN THIS THING... and only a TINY...TINY bit more powerful, mate

(it was one of those tower-on-its-side gateway pc's.. 450Mhz hahah BUT it did have graphics u see, 5GB HD, lolz!)
