Noahpad UMPC (1)-- Virtual Screen

[cavey89]

i feel sorry for the dude that spent the time making this eeepc solved the problem of portability with funtionality for the right price theyve stuck a nasty funky keyboard onit and bent it over backwards so you cant see where you fingers are on the funky looking keyboard. do they expect you to actual type as your walking lol bit hazadus lol. its nice there trying new stuff but i think they need to rethink this. lol

I think this UMPC is one of the greates innovations we can buy in the future. The EEE from ASUS really seems also to be good, but 4GB of Flash Disk is not enough for me. If the Noahpad comes with a Price like the ASUS here in Germany i would buy a Noahpad for sure! I think they should only give him 1GB of RAM and various colours like black, white, red and so on... And it should run with Windows XP, a stable system to work.Greets and Respect from Bavaria Germany, Markus K.

And I thought Microsoft's engineers were on crack.

How can this thing possibly be practical?

[DaRkSaTaN666]

yea this is really inconvinient. just get a normal laptop, or even better, a macbook air, its only a lil bigger and.. its actually useable.

[cartifex]

this noahpad is so fucking lame it hurts.

[Devilmaycryxx3]

Its not that amazing, theres already laptops which are litterly as big as a PSP and have about half the speed and memory as some of the biggest laptops out there.

You know what i really wish for is having the internet where ever you are and not having to pay for it. hmmm, anyone have their private satalite i can use? XD

Why do you all assume that this was designed with long-session power computing in mind? This is basically a laptop in pocket PC form. Seems most people fail to realize who the target consumer is for something like this.

Clue: They don't browse youtube, and won't end up paying a DIME for their unit.

Its hard enough for most people to use a regular laptop. I don't see this catching on outside of the slashdot crowd.

That said, I'd like to check it out, and wish you the best of luck!

Incredible usability! The Macbook Air will have to eat its manila envelope. Two keyboards, two trackpads, a virtual 10-inch screen. What's more to ask? If this is under $60 I'm definitely getting one!

[zerox39]

hahahaha. and sadly it was using mac os x

[keegiebear]

Not OSX, Looks like Linux with a Mac-like skin.

lol...that keyboard looks terrible, there's a strange bar going down the middle, and the keys closer to the center are about half the width of normal keys. having half your keyboard go down as you press on keys also doesn't seem like the best form of tactile feedback. and it's got thickness to die for!

and seriously, virtual screens are so 90s. puh-lease.

[milosovech]

No no no no NO!!!!

Window scrolling is the worst thing in the world. And it's not even a new thing. You're just making an unpopular and forgotten function appeal more useful.

And that keyboard looks like balls. Like my dads balls.

[JoPissvengance]

that things a peace of spit, just get a real laptop

[wongsmokesbong]

man the music sounds like a video game...even during the scene transitions...
