Samsung's Q1, along with OQO's 02, is one of the few UMPCs we saw that's actually available for purchase right now. The Q1 is built on Intel's ultra-low voltage Celeron microprocessor, but future editions will feature the chipmaker's Silverthorne chip due out this quarter. Users navigate via the 7" WVGA touch screen LCD, while the Q1's 54 Mbps of wireless throughput and built-in array microphones enable VoIP phone calls. Online retailers price various configurations of the currently available Q1 at between $800 and $1,650.
