Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversHere we reveal truth about Microsoft Origami also known as "Ultra Mobile PC" - we go beyond the buzz and tell you how it is!
First of all please note that now there are 3 models of Microsoft Origami (i.e. UMPC = Ultra Mobile PC) devices.
... and we have been playing with all of them! The "Founder" is a model for Asia only made by relatively unknown company there. It has nice construction however a little bit cheap look and feel.
The UMPC from Asus has solid feeling it to it, but is not stylish and most importantly has tendency to overheat very quickly. In other words: sometimes it is so hot that you can't hold it in your hands! Of course the model from Asus has built-in camera and it may be advantage for video calling with use of such applications like Skype.
The only UMPC now that is both stylish, has solid construction and is not overheating after several hours of operation is Q1 from Samsung.
