Opinion
Very nice pocketable PMP-style device with excellent battery life, near-desktop speed browsing and high-end media capabilities. GPS is also included which enables an all-in-one navigation package. The on-screen keyboard uses haptic feedback to improve the experience although it`s not as good as a real keyboard in our opinion. We would have liked to have seen a media slot and an external mic as this has potential as a mobile Skype client.

Product Notes
Expected in March 2009 for US market (Feb for Korea) 3G oversion to follow up shortly afterwards. (Targeted at EU market.) All models based on 1.3Ghz CPU. Some versions have 1024x600 screen. HDD options are 30 or 60GB HDD.
