"'Iit's a consumer-oriented gadget that provides everything the average user needs to stay connected, be productive, and be entertained with little compromise. Unfortunately, these same users could fail to see the difference between the P8860's capabilities and their current smart/feature phone's functions. They may be able to identify certain differences (e.g., Flash support, higher resolution screen, etc.), sure, but it is unlikely that these differences would outweigh the inconvenience of carrying two devices." http://www.pocketables.net/2008/10/review-aigo-p88.html

"Here’s another reality kick though. This is not some screaming-fast, high-end desktop-speed browser experience. For one, 800×480 means you’re switching in and out of full-screen mode quite a lot and speeds are at the low-end of the PC scale but compared to smartphones, this is in another league and because it’s Firefox 3, you just know its going to be accurate and reliable. Flash is working perfectly and most plugins I’ve tried are working. (Geode is the noteable exception right now.) Under Coolfox, even the embedded streaming video players seem to be working!" http://www.umpcportal.com/2008/11/aigo-p8860-mid-first-impressions-the-mobile-internet-takes-a-big-step-forward/

"The Aigo has lots of features and represents the latest in technological advancements in mobile computing, and is a developer’s dream for mobile because it supports Linux. In order to survive in the marketplace it will need to natively support Microsoft Windows as an option in addition to Linux, and the human interface usability issues will need to be addressed. In terms of the software stack, there will need to be a more targeted application set for the mobile user, and not be a mobile port of a popular Linux distribution." http://www.thebitsource.com/2009/03/28/traveling-with-the-aigo-mid-the-pros-and-cons/
