 Rating:  - A $650 paperweight that runs on LinuxI had some high hopes for this product. To say that I'm disappointed is an understatement. My main goal was to have a quick booting web device that could allow me to read TV listings and possibly control my A/V equipment. I also wanted The ability to read PDFs and Word documents. When I tried to load up a MS-Word document, I got an error message that there were no usable local apps installed and that I'd have to use an online reader if I want to read MS-Word files. The software that ... Read More Rating:  - PepperPad 3, A first rate UMPCAfter a fair amount of research, I purchased my PepperPad 3 with the expectation of expanding its capabilities through additional Linux programs and a modest RAM upgrade (512MB). It hasn't disappointed. This is a well constucted, durable and versatile machine. Either use it as the kiosk software intended, or upgrade it to be a handheld machine with desktop machine capabilities. The only downsides? A tendency to run on the hot side, and the tendency of the rubberized impact bumpers on the side to ... Read More Rating: - PP3 ROCKS!After doing exhaustive research, I reluctantly ordered the PP3. I do not regret the decision. I started out looking for a PDA on steroids, but decided on this UMPC instead. Let's face it: any PDA that can do what the PP3 can do (and none can) is NOT going to fit in your pocket anyway. I already have a PDA that fits nicely in my pocket and does everything I need a PDA to do. Having a PDA that won't fit (comfortably) into my pocket defeats the purpose of having a PDA. What I really needed ... Read More Rating:  - Pepper Pad a Useful AV remoteI've had my pepper pad a little over a month now. Some of the other reviewers I read had issues with the software being unstable. I have not had any of those problems. I've downloaded 2 software updates so far and they have worked perfectly. The unit's wireless Ethernet connects without a hitch both at home and at my work's wireless routers. It took about 10 minutes to have the unit learn my 15 year old televisions remote. Pepper pads pluses: 1. Nice usable screen for web surfing. 2. ...
