Somebody Really Likes His UMPC

November 12, 2006 |

It’s Josh Bancroft… and his daughter. His wife isn’t - she is going to have to vacuum all the packing peanuts…

Video is here.

I always wondered why the early buzz was so bad. It seemed that the devices could be very useful for a lot of people. I would love to have one for when I am on the road and want to just browse the net or jot down quick notes, or maybe combined with a GPS receiver. Just a shame they are a bit pricey.

Having been lovingly introduced to the world of the Ultra Mobile PCs (hereafter UMPCs) by getting to play with a Samsung Q1 for a week, courtesy of the guys at Intel Software Network, I was hooked, and had to make arrangements to get a UMPC for myself. I do IT support for my brother’s moving company, Wright-Way Moving & Storage, in Seattle (give them a call if you need a professional mover!), and he’s interested in trying UMPCs out for his sales staff. So we ordered a couple to try out. -)
