It's a waste to have this machine with both a PDA and a Vista function. A tablet PC is supposed to be a super set of a PDA. That is, it should provide all the functionality of a PDA.
Why do u say that? Its great cause u can get light computing done in WM6 mode and save a heck of a lot of battery life. This is the perfect UMPC and for the right price will take the world by storm like the iphone.
I'm sure there's someone working on a UMPC with a decent battery life (like 5+ hrs) with only one operating system. Wasn't tablet PC os supposed to surpport quick on/off; touch screen; Windows full funtionality; and longer battery life?
I guess we are still waiting ultra-low-power consuming CPU, GPU, and OLED touch screen?
