I was browsing computers on Newegg and I came across the ultra mobile pc section.....I'm very curious about these products. The two I was looking at are the:
Samsung Q1 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834131001)
and
Nokia N 810 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16858618003)

I take night classes and it would be nice to have a device that was small and had the ability to browse to web and look at the .pdfs I need for school. The Samsung will even run Office, which would be a plus. Anyone used either of these? Or a similiar product?

RR answered part of my question, he has the Nokia that is one knock below the one I listed. Anyone use the Samsung?

I had a Nokia 770 before my iPhone. The Nokia sucked donkey balls: slow, buggy, non-intuitive, flaky, dim screen, and did I mention that it was slow?

My iPhone rocks, on the other hand. Displays web, PDF, doc, xls just fine. The zooming and panning on web pages is unparalleled among mobile devices IMO. I'm much happier with the iPhone than the Nokia, even though its 480x320 is nominally inferior to the Nokia's 800x480.

Also, if you see my capitalize in posts (like the last one and this one) the post was made from the iPhone...
