Thanks for the link. Here's a dose of karma.
I saw that page a week or two back but it didn't make sense to me at the time so when you raised the Thread I went searching for it.

IMHO, it's unlikely that SmartDevices will unlock the potential of the Q7 with special video drivers.
I fear you might well be right. What a waste of a resource.

That way, you would have most of your money back and be able to make a quick decision on a SmartDevices V, an Archos 9, Toshiba JournE, or some other device.
That would be the idea, the favourite so far would be the Viliv EX70. I am waiting to see if it will be released with the upcoming Intel Atom 2GHz Z550 and Windows 7 which can be made finger friendlier with the Origami patch http://jkontherun.com/2009/09/21/win...ger-for-touch/

In addition, being Atom cpu, then Moblin might be possible.

Having had a 4.3" screen N800 I was curious to find out how useful a 7" screen might be and that was part of the decision to get the Q7. So if SmartQ optimises the capability then well and good and if not, well, I was forewarned.
