Opinion
Surprisingly quick for a 500Mhz PC and with very good battery life (over 5 hours normal use.) The VEGA will make a great high-end entertainment and navigation UMPC for car and home. Touch screen, mouse button and extensive button array improve usability. Is shipped in Korea with Windows XP Home so don't expect a full touch-enabled experience. Lack of built-in Wifi and Bluetooth means using USB sticks which is a disadvantage. Screen is very good quality at native resolution but too small at the highest 1024x768 setting. This is not a high-end gaming machine due to the limited 3D graphics support.

Product Notes
Now available through selected resellers in the UK and US.
The unit has two USB connectors which can be used for WLAN or Bluetooth sticks. A WLAN USB stick is supplied with the device.
Also available with 512MB RAM.
