GBM Hugo Ortega OQO 02 video is live
Hugo Ortega is my kind of guy. When he first gave a tease about the OQO Model 02 he has received he made the bold statement that he's going to use it as his primary computer for a few months. I quickly set him straight that he wouldn't be the first one to do that as I used a Sony U for over a year. Hugo has just posted a 40 minute video of the OQO on GottaBeMobile and knowing Hugo this will be a real winner. Go get it now. Gotta go watch it myself. :)
Damn you people and your vids!!
I'm 13 minutes into it and must bail -- just after the incredible revelation that ANY Wacom pen will work with the 02 and that it's best to get the cheapest model which will still allow one to enjoy a touchscreen!
AGH!!
If this was all in PRINT -- or at least an OUTLINE of the highpoints in print -- I'd have the bloody INFO at least.
Now I have to try to watch the rest tomorrow.
Feh!!

Mike, any Wacom pen will work with any Wacom digitizer which includes just about every Tablet PC ever made.

That's what I like about the OQO 2 : active digitizer! We want more of these on UMPCs, if only manufacturers would listen. The Lenovo Tablet has both a touchsreen and an active digitizer. So really, how hard could it be to oufit UMPCs with some pen love... A UMPC like the HTC Shift with an active digitizer would be a real winner and a TRUE "Shift".
