I am crazy about UMPCs but I wouldn't fool anyone about the practicalities of carrying this device like a smartphone.

You would need an extended battery + external powerpack in your pocket for starters.

It is too fat to hold as a phone or to be comfortable in your pocket. Seriously.

Modding the device in the way shown is by sending the device to a single guy in taiwan. Its not a regular job. It needs soldering and resoldering of the motherboard.

The screen is too small (4.5") in relation to its size.

I wouldn't want to carry a $1500 dollar (and thats used) modded device outside of my house.

That said if this thing was updated to 2010 technology and size it would be pretty neat.
