    A UMPC that is finally a usable computer not just a geek toy. I can not believe that it has taken so long for a clamshell UMPC but I am very glad to see one. While I would rather the screen not waste so much space and would rather it was closer to the 7″ width but still its a UMPC that I would buy. So where and when can they be purchased in the US?

    Nice one. Frankly the best UMPC I have seen recently. Hope to see it soon on the market.

    This one will never leave Japan unfortunately, sorry to disappoint.

    I tested this thing. Its actually not as nice as it looks. also, considering Japanese carriers offer 7.2Mbit 3G, this device is a little behind. It only connects via PHS, which can only do 200kbit…

    It feels very flimsy and that its light is not a good thing. It feels like a toy.

    I rather stick with my Shift

    I’ve read the recent reviews at Pocketables and they have not said it feels weak at all. In fact they have said it is well built, and the only flaw is the stock battery; you need the extended battery to get 4-5 hours.

    This is the only UMPC thus far with a good form factor to be a good mobile business computer. In the USA there is nothing even close to its form factor. I would not care about the wireless cell capabilities not working as the computer, wifi and form factor is enough to make it well worth the high price tag. There are millions whom would love it without the wireless but if it could load any GSM sim then this would be flying off the shelfs all over the world! Still a great UMPC!!!

    Conics.net and a few other online companies are taking orders and selling them outside of Japan!

    Pocketables.net tested the Vista performance and the D4 worked great, had no problems running 10 web pages, or 4 programs at the same time. They will be writing a complete review when they get the extended battery which is reported to provide 4-5 hours of juice.
