it is one thick portable - 20mm without battery.
Def. not something I would buy. Furthermore, why do all these umpc's have bezels. I'm no Iphone fan - but the flush screen looks very nice and is user friendly.
My old old Toshiba Portege 3500 tablet has a thinner bezel than all these new gadgets (including my n770)

It's probably to make enough internal space for all the components and also I have a feeling it's easier to make a sturdy device when it's not just screen all the way to the edges.

Larger, heavier, hotter and half the battery life -- that's my guess. I'm not an expert on power requirements, but I'm guessing adding a hard disk to N800 would double the power draw...

without a bezel... my n810's screen would be scratched to hell.

Does this suggest that Intel are restricting MID availability, perhaps worried what it might do to laptop (processor) sales in the US (and possibly EMEA as I'm sceptical about the LG/Europe+Canada info)?
And what's with the "L" key on that LG (see first pic in article)?
And the Enter key so far away from the main alphabetic keyboard looks like a disaster...
