Viliv Promotion Pack S5 EXP P 4.8-Inch Net-Tablet PC

I have been looking for a device like this for a long time. I need to periodically do some work related things when I am out of the office and I did not want to lug my laptop around everywhere. This device is perfect for a jacket pocket, bag, purse, or car.

Smartphones like BlackBerries, IPhones, and Samsung and LG devices would not work because some of the applications I need are PC only. I was also unsatisfied with some of the smartphone web experiences as many smartphones still only support Flash-lite, not the full version of Flash, and still seem unable to handle a variety of websites. I also wanted to not only be able to read and respond to emails, but also to open and edit attachments as I would be able to on any desktop or laptop computer.

The Viliv is a fully customizable PC. You can pretty much install anything on the Viliv that you can install on a regular PC. I run XP, MS Office, Adobe Creative Suite CS, FireFox, and Chrome and they all run as quickly as they do on my Core 2 Duo XP desktop. However, the Adobe Creative Suite is version CS (~2003), and not one of the more processor intensive recent versions.

The onscreen keyboard is not only customizable, but you can replace it entirely with one of the numerous third party options out there. I found the default on screen keyboard to be okay, as some of the more frequently used keys (like numbers and dashes) require typing a mode button before the number keys appear in place of some letter keys. I replaced the default keyboard with the Zero Weight Keyboard, a full screen transparent keyboard that I have found very user friendly. I can thumb type emails at reasonable speeds with minimal errors.

You can use WiFi or WWAN to connect to the Internet. My only complaint about the device is that it is not also a phone. I suppose I could run Skype on it, but I still would not be able to receive calls easily. Although the screen is high resolution, the screen is relatively small compared to a desktop/laptop and you may need to customize some XP settings prior to using the device (like setting Icons and Font sizes to large). Otherwise, the device feels solid and well built and is perfect for those who want an extremely portable PC. Get more detail about Viliv Promotion Pack S5 EXP P 4.8-Inch Net-Tablet PC.
