Folks, stop asking about keyboards!!! this is a new class of device; if you want a keyboard you want a "laptop" or "netbook". This is going to be the next big thing for everything else you want a PC for OTHER than copious data entry/typing. That includes movies, music, eBooks, PIM, surfing and finally we're going to get a real OS so that you can run anything else you want on it that you want (some games that fit the medium, other productivity apps, etc.). This and the Archos 9 will be hot.
You absolutely can carry a keyboard around, particularly the new one that folds up like a japanese fan. I also strongly disagree that all UMPCs should have a keyboard. Mark my words, tablets like this are going to be the next big thing. Not everyone needs a keyboard on their device to tweet their life out to everyone. Many, like me, will only need to do some minimal text entry (URLs primarily, and note taking). for this the soft keyboard or handwriting recognition will suffice just fine.
No keyboard but an onscreen querty, slooks clean and should be very reliable with the SSD. Bobo4Bums is correct.. I see no reason why it wouldn't work with a bluetooth or USB/adapted keyboard. I think this one is what I'll get.. looking forward to ordering this.
Like the IPad use the onscreen keyboard on the go and a real keyboard and mouse at home or office

If there is no built in keyboard,how you suppose to play games on it,this device is not good as wibrain B1H,playing games on it is wicked.

Well you can`t carry a keyboard around with you,if you not use to touch screen,this will be very hard to use,umpc should all have built in keyboard.
