Hi, I am new to this forum. Just tracked my order, and my SmartQ 5 will arrive by Monday (31 Aug 09) or Tuesday.

I have heard that the video and audio playback on the SmartQ MID's is poor because the hardware is very taxed by the default operating system. Can someone please compare the multimedia playback on the 3 OS's available, the default OS (ubuntu), WinCE and Mer.

I would be very grateful for any replies.
