(I really appreciate this site and your efforts with all the news, updates and insights). Here in London, i was looking out for UMPCs and bumped into a guy in a shop who said that rather than getting the Q1 (released here 8 weeks ago) i should wait for the R2H (for the obvious extra specs), he also happened to mention something to me (after a brief call with the Asus people in the U.K.) that Asus has kept the whole thing very low-key including developments, production and release and they are also doing many separate presentations on the device in different countries (I think in London it is this week and Germany it is the 27th) in order to try things out but i am not sure why.I think an indication of this is the fact that it is not even on the Dutch Asus website, when some people there have been using them for a week or so (from what i gather the ones out in Holland are without camera, gps and bluettoth, which, i think, is the R2 not the R2H).Reckon they are into shock&awe marketing? I think the probable price it is gonna be $999 in the US and around £799 here.
