Mossberg on Samsung Q1 Ultra: This Time, Samsung Has Made a Tiny PC That’s Practical to Use

18 May, 2007 Posted by As Windows Mobile,Windows PC (0) Comment

Last year, when Samsung introduced the first UMPC Q, WSJ’s Walt Mossberg gave it a harsh review and advised waiting for an improved model. That first effort, the Q1, was spurned by consumers, despite the high hopes of Microsoft and Intel, which conceived the UMPC.

Later in June, Samsung will make available the follow-on the Q1 Ultra. Mossberg sees the Q1 Ultra as a decent choice for people willing to put up with some limitations in return for the ability to carry a real Windows computer that is as small as a thin hardcover book and weighs almost nothing. These users include students and frequent business travelers who mainly want to take notes, write emails, do instant messaging and Web surfing, and play music and videos. For people who want to do a lot of word processing, or to create spreadsheets or presentations, it would be better to stick to a small laptop.
