What is the reason that you would buy an Ultra-Mobile PC instead of a notebook or PDA?

I do not understand the benefits of an Ultra-Mobile PC. Want to know what you guys out there think about it so that i would have more 2nd opinion.

I’m guessing you get the power of a laptop, without all the extra baggage, and the totability of a PDA, with more productivity potential. I understand your question. I have a laptop and PDA just use them accordingly, rather than wish I had something better or smaller. I can pack my laptop in a backpack with all the accessories, and if I really need it, take it out and use it in a minute.

My PDA is great for in car use, such as an MP3 player, a GPS, or an in-car phone system (still working on that one), also, I use it as a piece of paper in a way by jotting down notes and grocery lists.

My advice is to not get one until you’ve made sure that it’ll provide your personal “best of both worlds.” If you have a chance, ask a sales associate to let you carry one around the store, play with it, and see how convenient it is on the go.

From seeing the prices, you can get a decent laptop with more power. Maybe even both a decent laptop and a decent PDA. Its all what you want out of it. To me, its like a smartphone, which is cool, but if you run out of battery power, you lose both a phone and a PDA until its recharged.
