UMPC are not for everyone. In my case I travel for business and usually just need Email, Word, PowerPoint and Excel as well as a GPS. UMPC's like OQO 02 are small enough to fit in a shirt pocket and get 6hrs of battery life with the extended battery. They are fine as DAP and most can play some less pixel intense games. A bluetooth fold up keyboard and mouse work when I am in meetings. GPS gets me around town and Outlook gives me all my contacts. That is how I use it. I have a friend who is an insurance claims adjuster and armed with a camera and his UMPC he is good to go all day.
