JiWire's Quick Take
Likes
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Windows XP, QWERTY keyboard, multiple input options, dockable to big screen and regular keyboard/mouse.
Dislikes
Costs more than a loaded laptop, not upgradable, squinty screen, finicky stylus, poor battery life.
Good for
Laptop luggers who want to lessen their load, and Pocket PC users who want full Windows functionality.
Bad for
Manually or visually-challenged users should steer clear, as should those who need portable DVD drives and more computing horsepower.

The Gadgeteer "I've become both very impressed and very disappointed by it. You can't help but be impressed by such a small device that can run Windows XP Pro, has WiFi, Bluetooth, and a keyboard built in. BUT, as a mobile device, the OQO has some real deficiencies. The screen is much too dim. Much too spongey and not the best for stylus input. Then there is the fact that this little powerhouse gulps battery juice like I gulp Diet Coke."
PDA Today "The model 01+ is a nice evolution of the original model 01. With the performance increase achieved by doubling the RAM, a larger hard drive, better digitizing screen performance, faster speed of USB 2.0, auto/air feature of the universal power supply, and even an internal PC speaker, the model 01+ is much more capable than the model 01."
