Well, I went to Corcuit City last night with all intentions of buying the one NZ they had in stock. I played around with the display unit and did not find it too heavy. I could nottake the cradel off because it was glued down. But, for the most part, size was not a big issue. I kinda liked it. However, I just could not bring myself to plunl down 800.00 for the unit. I find it hard to justify the cost after playing with it. Nothing more than the NX with better camera and bluetooth. I can get a tablet PC for about 900.00 and that would be better. Grtanted, there is a size difference. But, at least I feel I am getting something for my 800 bucks. With the NZ I feel like I would just be wasting the 800.00. I truly believe I would have bought the unit if it was priced more reasonably at around 500.00

Anyway, just my 2 cents worth.

What Tablet PC costs only $900?

BTW - If you are making the comparison between the NZ and PC, then I don't think you really want the NZ because in reallity, there is no comparison as far as I can see.

Actually, it would be more accurate to say Datavis.com has it for $794.99. Which they do, I just checked...

A couple of things that make this better than the NX, despite the 2 megapixel camera:

1. Brighter Screen
2. Much more sturdy. The NX felt awkward when the clamshell was open.
3. Better Speaker
4. Better programs

For the love fo god. datavis sells for 699. I got mine shipped for 720 and it came the next day. Works great no problems. It says close to 800 untill u give them ur e-mail. Then they send you a link that shows it for 699. Then its not that much of a justification bc ur saving a lot.
