Now this triple booting OS X + WIN 7+ Android(if you wanted) UMPC/Phone was the Beast from the East:

It probably still rules if money is no matter!

Or I guess I can get myself a cheap EEE PC 701 and mod it
The EEE 900 looked nice but had awful battery life. I sold it.

I hear the Dell mini is the way forward for dual boot and modding!

Yes, I am sure! Not Mac OS X.

ToJa,

3G versions of this, the GIGABYTE M528, are already out and JKK mobile has used it to make calls but it doesn't really work well at 2 hr battery spans.

But it has electronic backlight keyboard on the plus side!

Money is a matter, but that looks completely awesome.

Dell mini looks nice but I'd rather want a device with a maximum screen size of 7".

I didn't even get to the specs, but the website had me laughing right away. Not only is having a portable computer with a phone and GPS in it purported to be something special, but in fact it's "The World's First Breakthrough!". I think that whoever figured out how to start a fire might beg to differ on that point. :P
Also, remember, kids - without an F5 or F10 key, your stock trading plans are doomed to failure!

That said, it does look like a neat bit of hardware, and I wouldn't mind playing around with one if I got the chance.

Ahh got ya lol, from the first page:

"Even Smartphone can only support stock software from 4-5 securities companies, the function of F5 and F10 can not be used and many indexes can not be viewed, resulting in my stock loss!
With xpPhone, you can do it!"

EDIT: That is very bad translation lol

Yep, have to agree on that front. My solar charger states: "Not waterproof do not let it wet on device" lol

EDIT: XPPhone made it to Computex =]
