My first question about such a gadget usually is "what's with battery life"?
I got severely disappointed by the eee PC battery life already. It's a great device (esp. with Ubuntu on it) but battery life is damn poor on it.
What I would really like was a netbook like the eee with 1024x768 screen and mobile phone components like the NITs for best battery life. That would rock!

EeePC 901 has 6600 mAh battery and can easily go about 5 hours with wifi...

Ubuntu mobile will be kinda pointless on an Eee. And Asus said they will be offering 3G addon cards for it (and there are menu icons and items for 3G in it even now
But you're probably talking about the Fujitsu

I didn't say its useless. I meant what Ubuntu mobile offers more for it than what Asus already has?

This thread is about the Fujitsu U820.

To The fujitsu.. Putting Vista on it was a sorely mistaken and horribly stupid move. Let's put one of the bulkiest; slowest; most hardware caring OS's on a mobile device...
Genius.

To me, Fujitsu is a sub-notebook more than a mobile device.

It made it through the FCC, and apparently now has 1280x800; I'm totally impressed, as that matches my 12" tx2000. It's even finer resolution (1/pitch) than the N8x0!
It is missing the separate digitizer, though; just touchscreen. And they're clunking it up with Vista.

When this comes out, there's a good chance I'd buy it if I had enough money. On the other hand, what wouldn't I buy if I had enough money? I can say with great confidence that this'll be way out of reach.
World's first inductively-charged N900!
