[muddypuddlerules]

that proccessor is better than mine...............

[0TheTechGuy0]

999? for a 1.8 and xp? ill stick with my mac

[thatguywithnoname]

@0TheTechGuy0 Except your mac is about 5 times the physical size of this...

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

@0TheTechGuy0 You are comparing cats and elephants...

[rockd00d2]

luv this but its way to expensive

[inlove2marrow]

i want one soooooo mmuch

[ojideagu]

@inlove2marrow They have totally ceased trading so this will never be released.

[slicey80]

where can i bye 1 of these its like impossible to find

[trinidadparaminman]

@slicey80 they went out of business so it will be very hard but not impossible to find one.

[Myway2224]

@slicey80 amazon

[kzl4znboii]

FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU they had posted that they are out of buisness. no more half-life 2 on the go.

[Gearsguy405]

@kzl4znboii Cant handle Half-Life 2, Have a device with EXACTLY the same specs and it plays HL2 at 10fps in just a box room map I made

[Kin632]

@Gearsguy405 dxlevel 70 lowest settings?

[Gearsguy405]

@Kin632 10fps, GMA500 is powerful enough, but Intel left the drivers to a shit company that refuses to make anymore drivers for it. The GPU could handle DX10.1 and OpenGL 2.0, but only supports DX9 and OpenGL 1.0 because of the drivers

Look in my videos if you want proof

[omnimon64]

imagine something like this with a i7 extreme

[timonix2]

@omnimon64 it is theoreticly possible the i7 does not pull that much power so you could use it while still having a resonable battery life

[wrestleralltheway]

hwo mjuch does it cost i want 1 were do i get ittttttt tr t anahahashahahaha

[JULESRULES9969]

@wrestleralltheway they went out of business:(

[mudscape]

The "security of windows".... ha.

[NiTr091]

whats the most powerful UMPC?

[ojideagu]

@NiTr091 the Viliv N5 maybe

[lazarpandar]

Too bad this'll never see the light of day

[stbays]

@lazarpandar It's already out.

[lazarpandar]

@stbays The company went bankrupt before releasing the 02+, you're probably thinking of the 02.

[stbays]

@lazarpandar I did a search for "OQO model 2+" and found one going for just over 2k. It claims to be this very same model. Not sure it'd be worth the going price unless you're a collector.

As for the others, I think you're right, it was probably just the 02. Sorry for the confusion.

[lazarpandar]

@stbays On ebay? Yeah I saw that one too. I'm just a college student so I don't really have 2k to be throwing around haha.

I take solace in the fact that in a couple of years there will be something like this again.

It amazes me how ahead of their time OQO was with their line of products..

[stbays]

@lazarpandar Have you compared the OQO model 2+ to the Viliv S5 or the Fujitsu Lifebook UH900?

[Gevor92]

where cam i buy it

[sellmus]

can you put linux on i t?

[sagger94]

You can put linux on anything

[joker71496]

Its funny but true, if you don't know that Linux can be put on any thing you shouldn't be using it.

[gazislam]

where can i buy it

[Y0utubeIsMistagged]

ebay

[Y0utubeIsMistagged]

All systems have value and competitive edge, Mac, Windows Linux, Unix etc. There is no real comparison because there are attributes specific to each that cannot be fully met in one.

[demon69120]

Damn, I'd wish I had a Sony UX, Viliv S5, or an OQO instead of a 64 gb iPod Touch. Maybe of I keep it new someone will trade me :P.

[fac3fin]

@demon69120

Do NOT sell your iTouch or throw it away, it's still handy because it's so small. :)

[demon69120]

@fac3fin Haha yeah pretty small, but not much smaller than an OQO while not slip up!

Just sucks because it costs $400 yet it's really not all that when you can find an OQO on ebay with a 64 gb SSD for just 200 more.

[macfanofgi]

"The security of Windows". No wonder this thing never sold. I mean, the least they could've done is include Symantec or MS Security Essentials...

[camboy1132]

this device dosent come cheap 2 grand plus it was rated very low on Amazon saying it was not worth the price tag. people where upset because of issues. Acer 2 half pound & some still complain because they want small. HP & Dell havent started making hand help computers yet. but they should. just tell dell & Hp u want more hand held windows small the pound. start harassing them & bug them tell them u want it. because we cant sit here and wait for many more to come form china like the xp phone

[Yarach]

how much does it cost?

[bastec666]

mmmm shes cute.

YES, they are genius, OLED FOR THE FUCKING WIN. Super low power consumptions, perfect color/contrast ratio, just perfect viewing experience.

BUT, they are still using shit-tell expensive crapware. Company's need to beg AMD to make a processor that is small, affordable, and the same if not more powerful than shittel.

[mletemps]

doesnt matter if they beg amd....amd is retarded...

plus intel has way better research

intel already has the technology to create 15 nm processors...i dont see amd doing shit

[Macintosh3745]

gonna buy it on e-bay docking station too! gonna install windows 7! maybe...

[tbone926]

yeah unfortunately oqo is out of buisness, because this technology is available in $300 mini-notebooks now!

[seva404]

netbooks are crap

[johnmonk66]

please tell me the name of the netbook that can fit in your pocket? not everyone wants mini-laptops.

[brianchris4]

haha.. "you've got the security of windows"

[johnmonk66]

windows 7 has no security issues, not one.

snow leopard just released their thrid update to try and fix their decurity issues where guest accounts and all the information saved in them dissapear. windows is back on top

[glauver]

@johnmonk66 - You're stupid and windows will never compare to MAC

[johnmonk66]

bla bla idiot, prove a point istead of just acting like a brainwashed cultist

[cyberJamilonc]

@glauver Lol, u ppl again? Missed u freaks.

[night1y]

@cyberJamilonc  LOL

[abuzubair143]

please any body can tell me that how much price of this is KSA ? it is available in ksa or not ?

[hydzior]

Its not avaible and never will be .

[scabble4205]

Does anyone know if you can load Mac OS X on this?

[thriller920]

mac stuff is too much ram

[rweiii1]

@thriller920 how can you have too much ram?

[gyroheadman]

i think you can but the company went bankrupt and the project was scrapped

[johnmonk66]

yes, there are videos here on youtube showing mac osx running on it

[EpsilonProcess]

Sweet little machine. Shame the company went belly-up. Wish someone would come forward and save them.

[thenight190]

I want one so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ProTeabagger]

1000$ for this.... thats WAY to cheap i think it costs way more

[stuartguthrie]

I love how vibrant the OLED display is and I love how smooth the video playback looks.

Stu :-)

[matrixmlm]

where can you buy it??? I've looked everywhere on the internet!!

[stuartguthrie]

They haven't been released just yet - keep checking the OQO website for release information.

Stu :-)

[mukatuna]

It might not happen, OQO have declared themselves bankrupt.

Thing is the OQO is a very expensive product, caught between smart phones and low-priced netbooks. I see this as been the problem with all high priced UMPCs.

How many people want to spend $1000 or more on a low powered PC, with minuscule keyboard and tiny screen that they can fit in their pocket?

For editing documents, sending emails, surfing, there are any number of smart phones and PDAs which can do this very well

[KiingOfSwag]

$999 Do u Know How Much Weed I Can Buy Wit That

[khlymore]

is this a cell phone as well? and whtas the price

[chilla2]

not a cell phone.starts at 999

[kooodeal]

You can put Skype on it and phone through WiFi hotspots

[rgdyk]

Way to go Maryann!

[roadcrash]

sry for noob-question:

what about games?

intel gma 950 is ok for games...

someone tested it?

[cpwyou]

I am an owner of the 02 and have been waiting for 2 months for a repair so I if they can't repair units quickly I would avoid. Love the machine I just hate the service.

[realdealworld]

Love it..

[unzarjones]

It's sweet, but I'll wait for Window 7 and cheaper SS drive.

[Dot2TheLock]

they are selling it with a 60g ss drive but its like 700 just for it lol

[ArielCaboob]

wtf does she say nvidia? 1:20 , I doubt nvidia would be helping these douchebags, their tegra is going to rock the hell out of this thing

[unzarjones]

She clearly said "...1920 x 1200 IN VIDEO" douchebag

[ArielCaboob]

and 3rdirttyhourlifespan

[Synthetic1706]

It will be around 770 EUR (999 USD)

[Kin632]

'Bout the price of a macbook(non aluminum)

[a73121]

this thing is badass i would hate 2 see how much it would cost!
