Origami UMPCs - a disaster?

The Inquirer says "MICROSOFT'S Origami Ultra-Mobile PC (UMPC) is looking like the company's biggest flop since Windows ME. Fortunately for Microsoft, it's not paying for this mistake, you are, if you buy one now."

So, are we surprised? No, after all we did say so; only much before (Read: Microsoft UMPC: All hype nothing new)! The UMPC is a great concept, but unfortunately it's not amazingly better than a conventional PDA neither does it really work like a PC fully; and it fails to be a convergent device as well.  So, if you are planning to buy a UMPC, we really suggest you read the above stories and dig some reviews up before you spend the cash.
