Jenn Lee published a thorough review of the Viliv S5 Premium UMPC this past week that has captured my attention. The review gives a complete overview of the S5 hardware and included software and addresses the usability in a number of different areas. You will find good photos of the various components and some insight into the different uses the S5 can provide.

The coolest part of this review for me was that I read it while sitting in my comfy easy chair, using Firefox in portrait orientation on the S5, using my finger to drag the web page around. I was doing that when I read the author’s description of doing that very thing on the S5 for the review.

Jenn briefly addresses the included proxy-based web browser Fast Web, an Opera Mobile-like browser that loads web pages very fast. Check out this video of Fast Web in action.
