If you're looking to drop nearly $2,000 on a UMPC, well, first of all, you're nuts, but second of all, you're in luck, 'cause the Asus R50A is Shipping g at €1,475 ($1,878). They weren't kidding when they said it would be above $500, but for the price you'll be running Windows s Vista a on a handheld with a 1.33GHz Intel l Atom processor, a gig of RAM, a 32GB SSD hard drive, a 5.6'' screen at 1024 x 600, three USB ports, a microSD slot, a wireless keyboard, and an external DVD D reader / writer. Connectivity options include 802.11 b / g WiFi, Bluetooth, and 3G. These specs aren't all that different from what you'd find in a netbook (save for the SSD), except you're paying more than twice as much and you get to look like you're playing Games s on a GP2X while you're using it on the train. Maybe it's supposed to be a status symbol?
