I'd rather carry that than a Kindle.  At least I'd be able to watch some movies and listen to some music when I finished reading.

I could live with that.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Typical Engadget Tech-Nerd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 15th 2009 9:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sinchun's 8.9-inch UMPC-891A holds onto the past with XP]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/sinchuns-8-9-inch-umpc-891a-holds-onto-the-past-with-xp/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/sinchuns-8-9-inch-umpc-891a-holds-onto-the-past-with-xp/</guid><description><![CDATA[Slightly unrelated, but I have a feeling a lot of PCs in Asia that use pirated OS are still on XP.
