    If anyone is in Japan, seriously, run on over to Yodobashi Camera because they are having a sale that goes till the 30th. It's on the Kohjinsha 7" laptop. http://www.kohjinsha.com/models/sh/sh6wp10a/specification.html

    This thing is nutty small and I love it and it's a speedy little thing.
    It normally runs for around $1000 plus if you get a Yodobashi point card you get a 10% credit, meaning 10% of 89999 yen is 8999, so $75 in credit towards your next purchase, not bad. This thing may only have a 600 mhz processor, but amazingly I can play 720p video on it flawlessly (and it looks AMAZING), cpu is around 85% load while running it, still cool none the less.

    How much battery life do you get on that thing? I read at UMPCPortal that it's pretty low.
