Re: [CGUYS] Netbooks vs. Notebooks

What UMPC's do you recommend Betty? dan Since I can't fit one into my budget--just into a pocket--I can make a wishlist. I like the Panasonic Toughbook U1 for size, but it's heavy. Something like that would be nice, but needs to be lighter. Itronix GoBook® MR-1 is better, but not much

[CGUYS] Google Chrome add-in for IE: Speed demon or big, fat security hole?

Re: [CGUYS] Netbooks vs. Notebooks

Thanks Betty ... I agree with you about small size being important for road warrioring. And I think the small powerful ones have to weigh more ... because they have more guts... I am interested to know the how's and why's of your going with an iPod Touch and a separate phone. How come you

WFB is Tom's term for anyone who disagrees with him. It's his way to end the debate, anyone not agreeing with him is obviously a paid shill or WFB. On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 10:46 AM, Judy Cosler jfcos...@gmail.com wrote: WFBs = On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 11:46 AM, tjp t...@tjpa.com wrote:

Re: [CGUYS] Netbooks vs. Notebooks

the Touch's screen keyboard seems a big liability to me. I have big fingers and find the iPhone's keyboard laborious when I have used one. Does the Touch have a microphone? If so the voice to text apps that are popping up could suffice perhaps... db mike wrote: I was going to add, I

Re: [CGUYS] Netbooks vs. Notebooks

I was going to add, I think UMPC's have been overrun in the public market by either netbooks or the iPod touch. I only see UMPC's in the workplace replacing what would have gone to touchscreen notebooks. I'd examine what you need this for and then see if the iPod touch can suit your needs.
