Leave it up to Sony to create a super tiny palmtop computer (Sony VAIO VGN-U50) that has a 20GB HDD and runs Windows XP Professional. The U50 is about the size of the Sony PSP (one of my favorite gadgets in 2005) and only available in Japan. If you really want to get one you will have to goto a site like Dynamism.com which specializes in tech gadgets that are only available in Japan.
CNET reviewed the Sony VAIO VGN-U50 in Oct2004 (review). This thing has been out in Japan for over a year and still nothing like it exists in the U.S. for sale. The only issue I see with the U50 is its price. If you can afford one then it is definitely the ultimate in portability for a computer.
Maybe the palmtop format will take off in 2006 here in the U.S.
