… For a few minutes, at least. I have to say – I’m both impressed and underwhelmed.

It’s a pretty nice thing. Compact, solid, and surprisingly heavy. The clarity of pictures are surprisingly good, although I could detect some pixellation. The interface is nice & smooth – even nicer than the iPhone. And reading: much, much easier.

I could see myself loving it.

That being said, I’m completely underwhelmed. This is what the whole hubbub was all about? A glorified iTouch, for $800?

Ouch. No thanks.

But feel free to buy me one. I promise I won’t whine about it…
