Funny reading, but old tech. We evaluated a system like this running on Pocket PC seven or eights years ago. While the tech was working fine the cost of micro transactions was just too high to make it worthwhile. I hope it has improved by now.
Everyone I have meet who have the K750i have been deeply in love with the phone. Most likely one of SE finest products to date.
Just a small correction, the name of the company is TeliaSonera since Swedish Telia and Finnish Sonera merged in 2002. Telia is just the overall name for some of their services in Sweden.
So I wasn't the only one wondering about it. DSUB is more than capable of this resolution, DVI should be able to handle it as well. If needed the refresh rate can always be decreased.

What's more interesting is why they name it Quad Wide XGA. Can someone please explain since it's exactly three times the normal XGA-resolution. TXGA (for triple XGA) would have made a lot more sense. Or why not QWSVGA since it's roughly the same pixel count. Anyhow, a proper QWXGA-display would have more than four million pixels, or almost twice that of this one.
Sorry, I meant 1.8" drive, not 4.2". This is what lack of sunshine make to man. :-(
Tripel, many netbooks use normal 2.5" sata-drives. And those are available in up to 500GB in size. This one on the other hand may use a 4.2" drive. I assume this since many of those run at 4200 RPM.
Amen! Everything which made the 2133 special has been removed. Sure, switching to the Atom CPU is most likely a good idea, but what about the high-res screen? And one of the major complaints people have had, about the funky mouse buttons, has still not been addressed.
I can't see why people complain about all the different models. The only thing Asus has done is choosing a single name for each configuration. Compare this to say.. IBM which for each base model of the Thinkpad line kept like 50 sub-models. One with bluetooth, another one without. One with a dual core Pentium, another one with a single-core Celeron. One with dedicated graphics, another one with integrated. One with a high-resolution screen, another one with low resolution etc.. And they all used the same name, like Thinkpad T60 or whatever.

Sure, Asus could call them all EEE PC and be happy with that, but I prefer simplicity in names and configurations.
Passable.. Not too often we use that word. Reminds me of the sketch by Monty Python.

Which can easily be solved by letting the camera only zoom in or out when the phone is moved a certain minimum distance, for example 3 cm back or forth.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
