    The Amilio is a nice line, it's just not sold in the US.

    Unfortunately they don't offer Amilo s in USA. I am in Dubai, The Emirates and I am stuck up between this Fujitsu Amilo and LG/IBM XNOTE.

    I guess Amilo s specs are one that is pulling me towards it.

    Thanks for your feedbacks guys.
