Although Ronan's <a href="http://www.ppczone.net/Reviews/Genio.htm" target="_blank">E-570 review</a> is pretty good, but it looks quite old fashion though (IMHO). The buttons and the d-pad looks too blocky.
And it is also kind of weird to have the IrDA plate on the side, don't you feel that a bit awkward at that location? (This reminds me of Nokia 8210/8250/8810/8850's IrDA port location too)
One interesting point that Ronan pointed out, is that Toshiba has allowed Genio to enable ClearType everywhere... I WANT THAT!!! :) :0
BTW, I know Microsoft said that, Merlin (PocketPC 2002) has ClearType built-in, where do you actually see them? I have to get <a href="http://www.pocketinformant.com/Products/Free/default.asp" target="_blank">ClearType for PocketIE plug-in</a> to get ClearType working in PocketIE. ???
Good thing though regarding Genio, is that, it's smaller in size and while still have the CF slot. That's pretty cool. Unlike iPaq, I need either a CF jacket or PC Card jacket... :(
