We've noticed a few criticisms on other sites regarding the size and keyboard. We feel it's essential to emphasise that the thumb keyboard is an add-on only (and is fully removable), and that the image was enlarged from it's original size. The unit is approximately the same size as a h22xx model iPAQ without the keyboard, and in our opinion this is a reasonably comfortable size for this form factor.

PLEASE NOTE: ? "WiFi TI Omap processor" was a typo; mistake is corrected.
