Comments on: Steve confirms with pics: Samsung Q1 Ultra http://gigaom.com/mobile/steve_confirms_/ Sat, 26 May 2012 02:44:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: scoobie http://gigaom.com/mobile/steve_confirms_/#comment-406616 Wed, 14 Mar 2007 15:22:45 +0000 http://jkontherun.wordpress.com/2007/03/14/steve_confirms_#comment-406616

PCWorld.com says

Weighing in at 690 grams, the Q1 Ultra is 12 percent lighter than the original Q1, which weighs 780 grams. It’s also slightly smaller. The Q1 Ultra measures 228 millimeters by 124mm by 24 mm, compared to the Q1, which measures 228 mm by 140mm by 27mm. The improvements will make the device easier to carry around.

Other changes include a sleeker overall look and a 7-inch touchscreen LCD (liquid crystal display) that offers 1,024-pixel by 600-pixel resolution, instead of the 800-pixel by 480-pixel resolution of the original.

The Q1 Ultra ships with an 800MHz Intel Corp. microprocessor, 1G byte of DDR2 (double data rate 2) memory, and an external USB keyboard, and adds support for HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) networks and WiBro, a mobile version of WiMax, as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Optional extras will include a fingerprint scanner, dual digital cameras and a navigation pack.

Pricing and availability of the Q1 Ultra were not immediately available. The Q1 is on sale from about US$1,300 to $2,000, depending on the processor.

From me:
Apparently though it doesn’t have a normal style of mouse pointer – that could be a problem

Cnet UK is reporting today this model will be at the same price as the old Q1 in the UK ! £799 (bear in mind IT is more expensive in the UK so don’t apply a dollar figure to this)

Hope its true, if it is thats a decent price for a 2nd gen model

BTW, I don’t see the Q1 Ultra! I searched “Samsung Q1″ on CDW. Did you see a price?

It didn’t take long… the Q2s are shown and the prices drop for the Q1s!
CDW running the Q1 at $899 and the Q1b at $799.

I can read the specs and it simply says “CPU: Intel CPU”. That tells me it will likely be a different processor than what’s currently offered in the Q1 series.
