Thanks Betty ... I agree with you about small size being important for
road warrioring. And I think the small powerful ones have to weigh
more ... because they have more guts...
I am interested to know the how's and why's of your going with an iPod
Touch and a separate phone.
How come you don't just combine the two and go with an iPhone?

What UMPC's do you recommend Betty?

Since I can't fit one into my budget--just into a pocket--I can make a
wishlist. I like the Panasonic Toughbook U1 for size, but it's heavy.
Something like that would be nice, but needs to be lighter. Itronix
GoBook® MR-1 is better, but not much lighter.
The entire UMPC/Netbook genre is blurring with mobile phones, except
for the rugged ones above. Compare Nokia 900, UMID mbook M1, Viliv,
iPhone. For now, I'm buying a Nokia N79 mobile phone, and considering
a new iPod Touch, maybe. The only thing I'm missing is printing, and I
can do that via BlueTooth or WiFi from a phone if there's an app for
it. Anything bigger than a 6-7" display is too big for traveling light
[I use a carry-on bag for trips, 1 day to 2 months or more].
I may as well just carry my Macbook instead of a bigger Netbook.
What's the point of a 10-inch 'netbook' when my notebooks are 12 and
13 inches!
