pretty please
That roadmap is from over a year ago - is it still relevant?
1GB is the maximum that Microsoft allow to be shipped with XP on a netbook
In order of decreasing priority for me:
- hi res screen (1280x800 would be perfect)
- matt screen
- less bezel, more screen
- more metal, less plastic
- 5-6% smaller in every dimension (down from 95% keyboard to 90% keyboard)
- optional built in HSDPA
Using kubuntu and wish I hadn't bothered upgrading really.

Laptop (Panasonic R5) didn't resume at all with default ACPI settings and still doesn't suspend and resume well (takes ages and sometimes fails) after fiddling around for a few hours to find the best combination.

Sound only works when headphones are plugged in - an ALSA regression it seems. Something similar happened with 6.04 and 6.10 but in reverse: internal speaker would work but no sound from headphones.

Not very impressed and thinking of returning to 7.04 which had none of these issues, or perhaps openSuSE 10.3
parry: there's loads of dual-SIM adapters but nor this one nor any of the others allow both lines to be active at once. That requires at least software support from the phone and perhaps hardware support too (two radios/baseband processors?)
Twin SIM cards is the dogs danglies. I'm often travelling around the same 3 countries roaming on GSM and generally have two phones on me at all times: one with my home/personal mobile and one with a local SIM card to not pay extortionate rates for data. With this I could just take one phone with me. Why has nobody done this before?

(I know there are all types of twin-SIM adapters for phone but AFAIK none that allow BOTH SIMs to be active at once)
Looks like it's got an HDMI port on the right-hand side - that's pretty cool.
I've looked through all of them and I can't see 1700MHz mentioned anywhere in any of the documents. I don't see any with a page corresponding to the above image. Have they removed the offending document? Or is the above image a screenshot of a hallucination?
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!"
