Default New Toy (gadget)

Sony UX-180. Just got one in at work, would of been here last week but it got held up in our ordering system.

It definitely owns the OQO with flying colors.

Here is a sample pic of it.

It's basically Sony's version of the UMPC. Being that I work in the IT Mobile Solutions group, one of the benny's is to find and test new devices that could benefit the company.

If you're going to use a docking station and keyboard, why wouldn't you just use a laptop instead of bothering with that?
