I agree! All the current PDA's and UMPC's suck. Most people want a touch type keyboard not some thumb or pen input. These were great devices and I could type 80% of desktop speeds with their great keyboard. Sad that nobody is using that form factor. They were a ahead of their time and a bit too ambitous trying to compete in both hardware with the entire market and Microsoft at the same time as they used their own OS. If they made one with the current UMPC technology it would run windows!
Didn´t understand a word since I am not French talking. However I am depressed that Psion Revo isn´t in production.I have yet to find any smartphone, pda or similar with that good keyboard in combo with touch screen. An ergonomic dream.
The size wasn´t a problem since the backside had a slight curved form = fitted nice in the backpocket.
The program that came with it was all you needed really when working on the field. Calender, xlsx for putting in data, a simply word program, notes etc.
