Amazon.com Product Description:
Shed your arsenal of gadgets while on the go--your notebook PC, PDA, and MP3/PMP player--and replace them all with the incredibly small yet amazingly powerful Samsung Q1 Ultra, which features the redesigned split-QWERTY keypad and larger, improved keycaps for easy text entry. It offers a full range of computing power normally associated with a laptop computer--a quick, ultra-low voltage Intel Core Solo processor, Windows XP Tablet operating system, Internet access using Wi-Fi networks (802.11b/g) or through your cell phone (via Bluetooth connection).

The Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC helps you stay in touch with everything and everyone without having to lug a heavy laptop around.

Check email, then easily reply with the large, split-QWERTY key pad.

Weighing in at under 2 pounds, the Q1 Ultra has a bright 7-inch touchscreen LCD with a widescreen aspect ratio (1024 x 600 pixels), and the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator video card offers up to 128 MB of shared video memory allocated from the system. Keep in voice contact with VoIP (when connected to a wireless network) using the integrated dual array microphone with enhanced noise reduction. Take advantage of enhanced power-management features to use the Q1 away from your desk for longer periods of time with up to 7 hours of battery life using the included 6-cell standard battery.

The Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition operating system adds the freedom and simplicity of putting stylus to touchscreen to the foundation of Windows XP Professional and its advanced security tools. Other features include an 80 GB hard disk drive, 1 GB of DDR2 RAM (at a fast 533 MHz), expansion via Secure Digital (SD) memory cards, two USB 2.0 ports (allowing you to connect an external keyboard, printer, etc), an RJ-45 port for 10/100 Fast Ethernet wired networking, and a VGA port for connecting to a monitor. Additionally, an integrated biometric fingerprint reader ensures all your files are safe and secure.

With the integrated Bluetooth technology, you can connect wirelessly to peripherals such as your cell phone and make cable clutter a thing of the past. Bluetooth 2.0+EDR is up to three times faster than its predecessors, offering a maximum data rate of 3Mbps, and is also backwards-compatible with Bluetooth 1.x devices.

Facilitating seamless communication across a range of environments, the Q1 Ultra UMPC features a 300-pixel webcam (on the front above the LCD screen), along with a high-performance dual-array microphone, enabling face-to-face video chatting/video conferencing. Additionally, a higher resolution 1.3-megapixel camera on the back of the device supports video recording and still pictures, allowing users to simply snap and send videos/photographs with a single device. In addition to Wi-Fi connectivity, the Q1 Ultra is also compatible with optional HSDPA 3G cellular modems, enabling you to access the Internet and your corporate network anywhere, any time.

The Q1 Ultra Premium stands out from the rest with its 7-inch wide LCD touchscreen. Its 1024 x 600 resolution and 300 nits of brightness add up to an incredible viewing experience whether inside or out. And its use of advanced LED backlit technology reduces overall battery consumption.

The instant-on AVS Multimedia features allow you to experience movies, photos and music the touch of a button and without having to boot the Windows operating system. The Q1 supports many video formats--including AVI, DVD, WMV, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VCD, ASF and TS--and is also compatible with MP3 and WMA audio files. You can listen to your music or movies privately using the headphone jack, or using the built-in speakers. Treat friends and family to photo slideshows and easily access your picture library with the AVS Now thumbnail gallery, which makes it easy to scroll through your entire photo collection.

Processor
The Ultra Low Voltage Intel Core Solo U1500 processor offers a 1.33 GHz speed paired with a fast 533 MHz front-side bus and large 2 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.) The Core Solo processor delivers enhanced performance for today's demanding applications such as CAD tools, 3D and 2D modeling, video editing, digital music, digital photography and gaming. And Intel's Smart Cache technology enables smarter, more efficient cache and bus design for enhanced performance, responsiveness and power savings.

- Medical student in love with this umpc
I've been using this for 6 weeks as a 3rd year medical student and I absolutely love it! It was exactly what I've been looking for. I like that I can hold it in my big 8-inch hands and type with my thumbs easily. I am an expert computer user (which is why I chose XP) and the system is very fast, but not quite as fast as looking it up in a pocket book, especially if it is on standby or hibernate.
The battery lasts from 0700-1500 with a 1min blank screen saver, the brightness on 1 (level 2 only takes about an hour off the battery life), a 10 min to standby, and 25min to hibernate. Charging it over lunch allows it to be used all day at higher brightness. Lasts for 5 hours if always on and on brightness level 1 (4hrs on level 2).
I bought some generic screen protectors and cut ... Read More

- Tough enough for a garbage truck
I now have three q1 ultra premiums. All three units are used as data collection points for garbage route drivers. My oldest is over 5 months old and I love them, No Problems. All three units are inside of otter boxes.

Only one con. When starting the unit without an auxiliary power source, the backlit level is too low making it almost impossible to use.

- My best buy of the year
I have had my Q1 for over a month now. It's an exceptional buy. I ride a bike to work and this fits easily into my backpack, and even with the accessories is much lighter than the laptop that I use at work.

My purchase was personal, my husband does a lot of work on our home computer and I wanted to be able to surf, order pictures for my family, etc. in the evenings. This unit is great because I can just sit on the couch, log in and it's there. The touch screen is easy to use as is the tablet input. The only negative I've found is that the handwriting tablet input doesn't work for certain fields (i.e. searching on google) but the onscreen keyboard does or I just use the keyboard on the unit.

The keyboard on the unit is intuitive and not as difficult to use as ... Read More

- THE ONE
Finally a UMPC that I am comfortable with. THIS IS THE ONE...
I am previous owner of fujitsu u810. I decided to change to Q1 ultra premium for a bigger screen & faster processer. I never regret that decision.

Pros:
1)One of the most sexy UMPC Design in the market and very solidly built, It looks like it can withstand some minor fall.

2)Ultra responsive touch screen. Feels like Iphone touch type. No need to apply any pressure or use finger nails to poke. A light touch with your fingers will do.

3)Speaker Sound is very good compared to U810. At least it is not the ultra high treble tiny sharp sound. It resembles my Nokia N800 speaker but has 2 speakers located at extreme left and right and play MP3 and in stereo. However I wish the speaker ... Read More

- GREAT MACHINE, though mine has one annoying defect..
Edit: 3/26/08 - Five Stars *****
Replacement unit is working perfectly!
--------------------------------------

After a week of ownership I'll say this device does exactly what was expected and at a reasonable speed. Hard drive could be a little faster during bootup, but is responsive during general use. Given the tiny keyboard, don't expect this to be a laptop replacement.. rather a very portable computer for those not requiring lots of data entry.

I planned to use mine for couchtop browsing, light email, portable media entertainment, and to perform mobile wireless surveys for my occupation. By many accounts the previous gen Q1's and OQO's A110 cpu is underpowered, so I chose the Q1UP with a Core Solo processor.
