I'm really interested to hear what you have to say as to how it compares the the previous U...I love my U71 and I want to know if its worth the cash to upgrade or not

Dammit, it's been HOURS!! Where are all the photos? Bugger video! You're inciting class warfare among those of us stuck on the Nokia 770!!

heres a direct comparison video of the UX50 vs UX90, shows a big difference in performance when comparing an unomptimized Sony build versus an optimized build. so JK if ur unit is super slow then u'll have an idea why! http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/news-11876-.html

Really excited to see the video JK!

I’m refreshing about every 10-15min, CAN’T WAIT!

The first video is of the unboxing and a general walk around the ports and connectors on the UX. I am going to do at least one if not two detailed usage videos, showing the real usage of the device.

Matt, stay home and wait for the FedEx guy. He’ll be there real soon now.

What I want to see are shots of the Q1 and the UX next to each other. If you and Kevin would be so kind as to FedEx those devices to me (you can use my FedEx account if you like), I'd be happy to take them into the studio and shoot them :)

2 new babies in one day! Wow, you’re on a roll.

Please can I request you video using the keyboard thumbpad?

I haven’t seen any “true to life” shots of someone using the keyboard yet. eg Are the reports you can’t reach the middle keys true? Do you actually have to hold it in the middle to reach the middle keys? How many mistakes do you make when typing? How fast can you type? etc.

thanks

You really stink sometimes JK. Jealous -- yeah I'm jealous. Why do they send such great techie toys to an old Grandpa like you? :-)

Nice. From what I hear if you can get over the lack of tactile feedback on the keyboard it's a pretty sweet little machine. :D

Curse you Kendrick!!!

Now that envy is out of the way. Could you do side by side pictures of the UX and a PSP?

Forget the Sony UX, what kind of keyboard is that? ;) Looking forward to the unboxing! This might be the first new Sony UX in the US right now!
