i could watch movies/web browse/play counterstrike on my p2 350mhz back in the day. its only the software that's gotten more bloated to the point where you need that much more power, but with a customized and streamlined linux install you can avoid that to a certain degree. i wouldnt be surprised if this were faster than your WM6 axim in real-world usage. plus its cheaper brand new than what your friend paid for a used axim.it seems like a solid offering i think, in theory. whether or not its of reasonable quality still remains to answered.
Well, it gets repetitive, but he is doing different sections of the video at vastly different locations and times, worrying about both demonstrating the features and making sure the camera is actually /catching/ everything, in the middle of a busy convention. Give him some leeway there.I wonder if he and the Asian chick may have been able to communicate better in some other languages, though.
Wow that is freaking awesome. That would be a perfect thing to take to lectures and just throw it into your backpack with worrying about your $1500 being broken. Thats such a great idea...but how in the world did they get that thing to cost less than $100.

Search for "mininote" and you get a great message: "Sorry, you do not find the goods!"
