Samsung have four UMPC models available, three with Intel CPUs and one with the VIA C7-M ULV processor. JKOnTheRun.com has had a chance to play with three of the models and has run battery life tests to compare two of the Intel units to VIA's Q1b offering. "Starting with the Q1 and the Q1B, the Via C7-M unit is providing a far greater amount of battery life. In my testing above, the Q1B offers around 70% more run-time and does so at a slightly lower price. Granted, there are functional differences between the two devices, i.e.: two speakers and better audio quality on the Q1, as well as smoother video playback, the Q1B can screen rotate in different resolutions, etc..... but strictly from a portable power perspective, there's a huge difference."
