Does having a UMPC do away with the need for a Smartphone?
Some people have noticed that using an Ultra-Mobile PC means they do less on their smartphone.
All day long within an arm’s reach, I have access to everything I need with the UMPC running Vista and supporting applications. I have eReader installed on the Q1P, which is why I alluded to not needing it on my smartphone. Let’s think about this for a second. My UMPC has an extended battery, which gets me a good five hours of constant use. With turning off the radios and using Sleep mode when not actively using the machine, I can spread that five hours of constant use into a full day of intermittent or as-needed use. I also have the standard battery charged and handy in a pinch, plus I’ve been known to turn the backlight off when using the UMPC to listen to music.
