Wow, the picture of it in his hand looks eerie... just like a 770!

What were they thinking? Handheld devices are near useless without a wireless networking capability. Think how the 770 would be without Wi-Fi and BT. No one would buy it. The "Vega" will die a quick death.

I concur. Plus, just look how thick that thing is! You'd get some strange looks carrying that thing around in your pocket [that is if it even fits].
Yup. Its an extremely dense device. However, remember that this device is shipped with larger of two possible batteries. The small one saves 130g and a fair bit of size.
Here's a pic with the battery off to give you an idea of the size of the processing unit.
Howver the lack of built-in wifi is a pain in the arse. Raond Digital have told me they are considering this for an upgrade. I hope its quick!
Clarification: When I went to the link Dynamism emailed me, the price was $999. I checked again yesterday and the price was $879. This new price is more in line with what I expected.
I'll refrain from debating your assessment of the 770.
