You won't be disappointed!

(4 out of 5) by Michael L. Brown on Dec 24, 2004 (Jackson, MS USA)
I got mine yesterday and I'm loving it so far. It took me a while to setup because I had to upgrade from ME. But once I finally got everything setup, I've constantly been on it. There are some improvements that could be made, but overall I'm happy I bought it (not to mention I got it at a decent price). But enough about how much I like it, here is my list of some pros & cons so far.

Pros
-Mobility. It's soo sweet not being tied to a computer desk.
-Simple yet sufficient interface. The panel isn't cluttered with a lot of buttons you don't need, but all the necessary stuf is there.
-Doesn't overheat. I've been on mine for close to 24hrs straight and there isn't much change in the tempature.
-Easy input. The input panel has a keyboard and a writing pad which are both easy to use. The writing panel can even recognize script.

Cons
-No indepedent browser. With the intergrated Wi-Fi, it would be nice to pull it out at a Wi-Fi hotspot and start surfing. (If there was a browser and email client included, I probably wouldn't have linked it to with myPC.)
-Video plays choppy.
-No scroll button. Not a big con, but it would be a nice thing to have.

So far these are some of the things I've noticed, but all in all I'm glad I got it.

At this price, why?

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Sep 30, 2003
I was initially intrigued by this technology, and eagerly awaited shipping products. But I was dismayed when I saw the prices. For not much more than the $800 of this 10.4" display, you can get a low-end laptop with a 14" screen and WiFi that suffers from none of the limitations of a Smart Display:
- Sync with desktop? Accessing files and printers is what's most important; it's plenty easy to share stuff from your desktop PC and access it wirelessly.
- Surf the web just as easily
- Watch full-motion video
- Enter text with a regular keyboard, not hunting and pecking on the screen
- Read and write CD-ROMs
