I think you hit it right on the head.
I currently have a TX, a Zaurus SL-C760, a laptop as well as various MP3 players and eBook readers.
I've seen the Nokia 770, the Pepper Pad and such. In every case, I ask "what will it do for me? What need will it fill? What functionality does it offer above and beyond my current devices?"
The only answer is that "it's cool." Well, that's not enought even for a gadget-geek like me. I need it do to something more than what I already have.
It can't be a laptop replacement, but offers the same battery life. So why replace my laptop?
It's much larger than my TX and doesn't offer nearly as much battery life, so no replacement there.
I see no niche that UMPCs fill at all.
