The Viliv N5 is kind of what you’d get if you crossed an Intel Atom powered netbook with… something smaller. Basically, this little guy has all the specs of a relatively mundane 10 inch netbook, but packed into a device with a 4.8 inch display that’s small enough to fold up and put in your coat pocket. It’s now available for purchase from Dynamism, which is offering same day shipping.
The only model in stock at the moment is the Viliv N5 with a 3G modem, which runs about $799. But Dynamism expects to have the WiFi-only version in stock on July 19th. It will sell for $649.
The Viliv N5 runs Windows 7 and has a 1.3GHz Intel Atom Z520 CPU, 1GB of memory, and a 32GB solid state disk. It has a QWERTY keyboard and a 1024 x 600 pixel touchscreen display.
It is a shame that such small devices have such big prices. If it was a lot lower in price, IMO; it would do better. At $799, one could buy two netbooks instead.
