Leave it to Intel to cause confusion in the mobile pc market. Christopher Dawson asks the right question: "So why don't I have a UMPC in my cargo pants instead of a PDA on my belt?"

what the market really is crying for is a simple computer that has a touch type keyboard, touch screen, that can be stored in a jacket pocket and can run any full windows application. I do not care if it is MID or UMPC.

I think the Intel chip and concept of MID is good but I am concerned about so much push on Linux. They did demo a MID with windows in Bejing and I hope more MID's run full Windows.

PS I am invisioning not a PDA size palm device but rather a device as large as possible yet still fits in a jacket pocket; more like a modern Psion.
