Raon Digital Everun: hands on a production sample at UMPC Portal
Steve has a production sample (not a pre-production unit Steve! ;) ) of the Everun from Raon Digital and I see that it's much improved over its predecessor, the Vega. His two videos give a very nice introduction to this new device: I particularly liked the auto-rotate feature, something I have on my much larger Toshiba M205 Tablet PC. The fact that Raon Digital can integrate an accelerometer or similar device within such a small handheld is nothing short of amazing. Rather than spoil the great videos with more descriptions, head over and take a look...
i have the vega, and it is actually a capable little machine despite it's shortcomings.. it has performed well enough that i will probably get the everun. the improvements they have made between the two models are amazing... kudo's to raon digital..

I watched the video and this device really rocks. The only shortcoming I could see was the lack of the Tablet Edition to take advantage of that touchscreen and the pen. Otherwise a very well thought out device.

James, I would have agreed with you with XP Tablet PC on the Vega, since you're lacking a physical keyboard to input data (and not all Vegas came bundled with Ritepen) - but I think its less of an issue with the Everun. I can't wait to get one and finally be able to ink on onenote :D

ps: while everyone else is waiting for the iPhone, guess which one I'm waiting for?!

You can't buy the Tablet Edition though so it's not an option for most people.

Does anyone know when this will be out? I am looking forward to adding this to my arsenal. Will compiment my p1610 as a mobile companion. This is really the right proce point for a device like this. I held back on oqo because I just felt it was too expensive for the type of work I would do with it.
