OQO has refreshed the Model 02 Ultra UMPC that comes with a speedy 1.6GHz processor and the choice between a 120GB hard drive or a 32GB SSD. Obviously using the latter will result in faster boot and load times (up to 50%) as well as increased battery life and durability, but you will also have to dig deep to purchase one. The WWAN in the Model 02 Ultra has also been upgraded to 1.4Mbps EV-DO Rev, and all this despite the entry level price drop to $1,299 from $1,499. This updated 02 are currently on sale in the UK from resellers like Expansys.
