When closed, most of the space is taken up by the 4.8” large touchscreen, which in theory has a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels, but no matter how hard we tried, we couldn’t manage setting this value larger than 800 x 600. On the left of the screen the buttons representing the left and right mouse buttons are placed, along with a 5-way controller, resembling the navi-pads from cell phones, which, in my opinion, cannot be used for anything, as on the right of the screen we can find the well-known stick cursor. I felt the latter one as having a quite low sensitivity; I had to make a real effort to work with it. The OQO, reviewed earlier, proved to be much better in this. Much better.
Continuing the analysis we take a look at the right side of the device, as this is the control center. This is where we can turn the Bluetooth, the WLAN radio and the device on or off. We also find the 2 USB ports here, which can be used as full and complete connectors. Only the headset’s connector is on the left side (yes, headset, as the device uses a single jack port for the mic and the headphone, so a special headset is needed for it, but of course we won’t be able to make phone calls with it), while on the top we can find a disappointment, the slot of the CF card. I would have been much happier with SD-support; I don’t know what do You think about it, but in my opinion the CF card is not really a tool of our time.
Sliding the display upwards the QWERTY keypad and some shortcut buttons are revealed. Let me sniff a bit at this. Not even after two weeks of active use did the keypad become a handy tool, although the keys have an adequate size, there is a right amount of space between them, but the hotkeys placed in the center have disturbed me a lot, moreover the keys are extremely far from the mouse, so browsing was uncomfortable if I didn’t use the stylus.
I find two things worth to be mentioned, regarding durability. One of them is the slide used for moving the display – I found this very cracking and difficult to move even now and I was worried about it. The other thing is the rotatable webcam, which is a joke. A sticker is put near it by default, warning us not to rotate it too strong as it might brake, but unfortunately this is absolutely true. There is nothing to block the possibility of destruction; practically an unguarded user can easily break it, so I was very afraid to give away the gadget.
