Expensive; cramped keyboard is difficult to use; painfully slow performance; short battery life
If youre looking for an extremely portable PC that will attract attention at the airport, office, or your favorite hotspot, the Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC fits the bill—but if you actually want to get work done on the road, skip this ultralight and buy a...

Abstract: When we saw the first Australian sample of the Q1 Ultra earlier in the year, we were by turns both pleased and disappointed. The evolution of the hardware interface together with Vista’s greater touch-friendliness was encouraging, but simply not...
Le Q1 Ultra est l’un des ordinateurs portables les moins encombrants du marché. Plus complet qu’un PDA, il manque néanmoins de puissance face aux ultra-portables testés précédemment. D’ailleurs, pour le même prix, il sera peut être plus...
