Well guys, this is as close as it gets to a Z killer for me. I've been (and still am) an avid Toshiba Libretto user for the past few years. The 50CT, 70CT and an imported M3 got me by in an 8'' x 4.5'' 1'' form factor that was easily touch type for even my large hands.
Everun Review from UMPCPortal Last month RAON released the Everun Note. In a very similar form factor (a cm shorter and a cm taller) it boasts the following: 2 USB ports 1 USB mini B port (for use as a hard drive: you can actually plug this laptop into another PC and it shows up as a portable HD) Wifi Bluetooth SD card slot USIM card slot (currently there isn't a 3G /HDSPA receiver in the laptop, though the pads are there!) PCIe slot 60 GB HD 1GB ram Dual Core AMD 1.2Ghz proc (which is faster than it sounds; this is leaps better than the current net book stuff) ATI something or another beefy GFX card, I can't remember At any rate, it's something I can touchtype on again that is pretty dang small. The ups are size and power, the downs are the funny mouse and battery life (a pale 2.5 hrs), but for Libretto lovers, I think this is the next thing. Check it out and discuss. |

I have a Fujitsu U810, and for fast boot (2-3 sec) I have linux+suspend on lid close, resume on lid open.
It works very well, an it's really as fast as my zaurus resume could be. On resume, battery keeps the unit for 3/4 days. So after closing the lid on Friday, on Monday I resume in 2/3 sec without any problem. HTH |

I did NOT have that kind of suspend / resume performance with Windows XP on my 810 when I had it. What linux were you running? Ubuntu? I also really HATED the keyboard configuration. I hear they fixed this with the u820, but I'm waiting for the price to drop a little for the new U. |
