The OQO O2 garnered good reviews since it came out and has won a number of awards.  Recently, they dropped the price (the entry level is now $1299) and at the same time increased both the speed and disc size.  Yet more good news is that they are available to order now.

Marketed as “the world’s smallest PC running Windows Vista® and the first ultra mobile PC (UMPC) with embedded 3G mobile broadband”, disc drives come in 40GB, 80GB and 120GB options, with an optional 32GB flash based solid state drive also available.  Speed wise they are now running at 1.66Ghz, which makes this a good solid performer in a little case.

“With today’s announcement, OQO further extends its lead in the fast-growing UMPC category,” according to Bob Rosin, senior vice president of marketing & alliances. “OQO created the UMPC and our new products offer performance, wireless and storage options that further advance our vision of anytime/anywhere access to information, applications, corporate networks and the full PC internet.”
