Received an email from OQO about the availability of the their new pocket computer. Here is their sales strategy:
  • The OQO will be sold over the OQO web site and via large established international resellers;

  • Target price is the low end of the notebook price range ($1200-$1500)

I see their target price has climbed from around $1000 to over $1200. Hope they don't price it out of my range. Here are the specs:
  • 1 GHz Transmeta Crusoe Processor

  • 256 MB DDR SDRAM

  • 10 GB hard disk (20GB by year's end)

  • 640x480 (VGA) 4" screen with Synaptics touch screen

  • Audio microphone & headphone

  • Firewire (1394) for multimedia device (fast serial)

  • USB serial port

  • OQO-link (docking connector)

  • Thumb keyboard

  • Battery life: - designed to run all day for standard MS Office and browsing, - 2 hours for DVD, over a week in sleep
