yeah it does, im sure that version 2 will have a lot more power and probably get rid of the serial port.

Pretty mature-looking considering its the 1st product of a 1st generation device.  I’d rather have a standard resolution on the screen and USB 2.0.  Also, I can’t believe that TabletOS isn’t included.  I wouldn’t consider it until they implemented TabletOS.

Yeah it’s really expensive and I would only buy it if it had over a 40gb hard drive and 512 RAM. 

It probably would get pretty hot just like some laptops do if you have them in your lap.  I probably won’t buy one….yet!  I’m sure they’ll come out with much better versions in the future.

Considering you can get a much much MUCH better laptop for the same price.

Yeah I got my laptop for about 1.8K and it is like 1.6 Ghz.  It’s got 1GB of RAM though.  That’s what I really love about it!

i read some article about using laptops on laps…

it said that it will “cook” your testicles and raise their temprerature 4 degrees which can kill a lot of sperm..

Who cares if it kills your sperm.  I am in no hurry to impregnate anyone.  As long as there’s no permanent damage. 😊  What about Wi-Fi though?  Could that do some damage?  Oh and back to the Oqo… it’s still too expensive for me.  I think I rather just get a PDA.

it can do permanent damage.  a small percentage of men wont be able to impregenate anyone after your testicles get heated up too much.

lesson - dont use laptops on your lap.

As much as I don’t believe that, I never use a laptop on my lap anyway.  It’s always on my desk.  I think it’s sorta like that “Cell phones cause brain cancer” story.  I don’t really believe it too much but better safe than sorry.  I still use cell phones though :|
