No no, in reality it looks much better than on most pictures (do you know this from certain people in your acquaintanceship?).

Funny: Their advertising is "Sorry Blackberry, We provide you a real free mobile life - full browsing internet plus the complete functionality of Outlook"

Probably at least for 3 months I will wait for Nokias answer, hopefully with Arm Cortex as used by the new Archos line.

The just-released Dell Inspiron Mini 9 I think it's called is a netbook that does have Bluetooth and the version with Ubuntu is less than $500.

I'm getting an HTC Dream/ T-Mobile G-1 android phone as soon as it comes out. If it works for me as a convergence device, and I'm happy with the usability/form-factor, then I'll likely abandon any concept of a MID or NIT, replacing both my N810 and my E61i.

Then I'll just be looking at what to use in the UMPC/netbook/small-laptop category. I'm still largely considering a Samsung Q1 Ultra with Ubuntu Mobile, for that purpose.

As long as it's under $1000, I could probably be on board with a fully supported Ubuntu version. If only it had a tilt screen ;-)
