Ctitanic, I’ve been reading your eo blog. Keep on their necks! I want to see the eo succeed!

I said, that I did not mention AMTek when I was talking about to learn because I don’t think that they are capable or learning. :D If I was TabletKiosk I would run away from them with all my money.

No problem. Like I said, if we are talking about performance Intel is a clear winner, but if we are talking about battery efficience or encryption/decryption processes VIA is a clear winner. The Premature release of the eo without having been properly tested by TabletKiosk/AMTek and properly configured by AMTek/VIA has done a “very good job” missleading the market to wrong conclusions. I hope that VIA and TabletKiosk learn from this costly mistake. Yes, and I do not mention AMTek in my words because as you can see, in both problems AMTek is present. They did not tested the eos, they did not configured the eos, they promised TabletKiosk to have battery issues fixed in the final release units and TabletKiosk trusted them. As result, we have what we all know, buggy drivers and a hardware recall.

WOW! All good points and I appreciate the extra analysis provided as well as the constructive criticism on my thoughts. I’m going to modify the post to strikeout my statement about the Celeron being more efficient than the Via. There are other factors involved here in the overall efficiency numbers and in hindsight: my statement was likely jaded by all of the news on the eo’s power issues. Thanks to all for the help on this!
