Shenzhen e-Loam F7 UMPC with touchscreen and Windows XP

[The_question]

What you?re looking at folks is the Shenzhen e-Loam F7 UMPC. It?s a Windows XP-running ultra-portable machine that runs on a VIA C7 1.2GHz processor, 1GB RAM and comes with WiFi, Bluetooth, 0.3-megapixel camera, an optical mouse, and a 7-inch resistive stylus-based touchscreen. The storage capacity is listed at 8G which could just be a typo for 80GB or 8GB, we?re not quite sure. However, what we?re definitely certain of, at the moment, is that despite is questionable build, the e-Loam F7 does look like a well-featured UMPC. Of course, trying to type long documents and e-mails on it using a stylus will be quite a challenge, but hey, it?s a UMPC. What did you expect?

Currently available in China, the F7 packs a 7-inch touchscreen display, a 1GB of RAM, a 1.2GHz VIA C7-M processor, a 8GB (or 80GB) hard drive, stereo speakers, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 2-in-1 card reader, a 0.3-megapixel web cam, and according to Pocketables may be an optical mouse somewhere in this mix. From the specs above, looks like the price is not too high.

Hmm, the lack of a keyboard could seriously hamper those who want to type out long documents on a road trip or reply emails as fast as possible. Maybe UMPCs ought to just go extinct, as they tend to fit in no-man's land, at least for most of us
