In the traditional Engadget fashion of having
caught shots,
screen pics, and even a
proper hands-on before the device
is announced, may we present to you Samsung's Q1. Call it an ultramobile PC, call it
Origami, whatever, it's a 779g (1.7 pound) 9 x 5.5 x 1-inch
mini-tablet with a 7-inch touchscreen LCD, Celeron M ULV processor, 40GB drive, 512MB RAM, 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.0,
GPS and DMB options (of course), and
Windows XP Tablet with Touch Pack. We
still don't yet know a price or expected release on this, so expect yet another post on the Q1 in the near future, or
at very least an update to this one.

I was able to play around with the Q1 a few weeks ago. It was definately impressive. On paper it may seem like the size is a problem, but [at least to me] the size seemed perfect. I was one of probably about a dozen or so people looking at it. After seeing it we were all in agreement that we would be buying them when they first come out. It kinda reminds me of webtv. I wouldn't say that it's a total replacement for a computer, but if your traveling and just need to check email or surf the internet, it seemed to be perfect. Then you have the added benifit of adding a few windows based programs that you might want to use while traveling.
