Impressive hacking. I'll have to take a look.

The price seems a reasonable deal, but buyers should be take into
consideration that places like

www.umpcportal.com

report a consensus that the processor/battery combination gives quite
battery life compared to other machines. (This

http://www.pcpro.co.uk/reviews/201324/hp-2133-mini-note.html

reports at absolute most 2 hours without using wireless.) For me, the
primary reason for using a subnotebook/netbook is to be using it in
some impromptu place (without power points), so I'm certainly not
buying a 2133 until a model with an Isiah (? has this been renamed)
CPU gets released.
