SamSung Q1
Just a quick updat on my experience with the Samsung Q1, I will try and do a full review when I have the time.
Well I've had my Q1 for a week now, and all in all, i'm pretty impressed.
If you imaging a oversized Sony PSP you will have a good idea what the Q1 looks and feels like, even to the fingerprints all over the shiny black casing!
The packaging of the device is really good, Kevin over at jkontherun.com has a really good unboxing video showing all the gory details (he also has some pictures of the Q1 taken apart, if you are really curious).
For day to day tasks the 900Mhz processor is more than up to the job, and the screen resoloution is fine for all the tasks I have tried, the quick resoloution switcher is a real boon to see more of a document or web page when you need to. The tablet OS takes some getting used to, and all the tutorials dont run on the Q1 for some reason, so its been a bit of a voyage of discovery, but I am begining to get the hang of it now. Hand wrinting recognition is amazing, forget all you have seen on Windows mobile and the like, this really works, I would guess its 95% to 98% accurate! It can even search on handwriten notes which makes it really good as a note taking device, jot down some notes in windows journal or One note, and you can search for them later, or turn them in to text straight away, really neat.
I've got to send this one back as it has a broken stand and the touch screen keeps wandering, but I shall be getting another one and will be keeping it, more thoughts as I play some more over the next week.
