Home made UMPC
Mobility Site — There are customers that are very hard to please, and there are some of them that are willing to do what ever it takes to get what they want.  And this is the case of one of todoUMPC forum members who did not find the ideal UMPC in the market so he decided to make his own one.

Acer Aspire One modded into touchscreen UMPC
Boing Boing Gadgets — ... touch screen by gutting an Acer Aspire One of its keyboard and trackpad, installing Ubuntu Netbook Remix on it, flipping the screen around and inserting a touchscreen panel. Thanks to Ubuntu's built-in touchscreen support, it apparently works a treat. When are manufacturers going to start doing this themselves, extending the netbook concept to tablets? It's past time: in an ocean of indistinguishable netbook clones, the first netbook tablet would really stand out. UMPC Tablet Acer Aspire One [ToDo Forums via Slashgear]

Acer Aspire One becomes DIY slate UMPC
