The Viliv S5 features a superfine 4.8" WSVGA display, 16GB SSD, and an
Intel AtomTM Silverthorne 1.2GHz CPU. From a pocket PC standpoint,
the S5 has a surreal (for its size) battery life of 7 hours of use. Along with a
instant-on feature that allows you to resume Windows XPTM from sleep
in under five seconds--and commensurate 200-hour standby time)--the S5 is unique
in being a truly ultraportable device that delivers the full rich web
experience. Rich web is complemented by rich media. The S5 supports 720p HD
video playback, and features integrated Wifi, Bluetooth, and GPS.
The
impressive UI technology includes on-screen keyboard with haptic feedback like a
smartphone, as the Viliv "Cube UI" overlay that allows you to select up to 36
bubbles (5 categories, 180 total programs) and assign them to any of the
available "bubbles", even arrange programs by type so you can keep your
productivity software separate from your play software, and switch between them
with the flick of your finger.
Let's take a closer look at a variety of
ways the S5 can add a touch of the sublime to the banalities of daily life and
work.
|
GPS: This tiny Windows XPTM device
lets you use your favorite navigation software--including
StreetDeckTM, Google EarthTM or Microsoft Streets and
TripsTM. No need to switch back and forth between your car and
handheld GPS, because the Viliv S5 is with you anywhere you go. The optional kit
makes it easy to use in the car, and the incredible battery life assures this is
a reliable solution. |
|
|
 |
|
Multimedia/entertainment experience: Now you
can have a full portable media player, without giving up functionality--or heavy
usage. With its full version of Windows XPTM Home, you can run
iTunesTM or any other preferred media player. Easily navigate through
your music and movie library with the ease of a fingertip, and be able to
download and see your favorite movies or listen to music from
iTunesTM, AmazonTM, or a streaming site like
SongzaTM. |
Instant on: The
"Just On" mode of the Viliv S5 lets you boot up from sleep to
WindowsTM in under 5 seconds. With 200 hours of standby time, you can
access your data quickly and easily at the push of a button and rarely have to
worry about having to find an outlet before your battery runs out.
HD/Streaming: No longer do you have to bring your heavy
laptop to the couch or be tied to your uncomfortable office chair and desktop
computer. The Viliv S5 is capable of playing 720p HD video in a variety of
formats, and you can even stream your favorite new shows from FoxTM,
CBSTM, HuluTM, etc., easily and smoothly from anywhere,
whether the couch or your bed. With the optional TV Out cable, you can even hook
up the S5 to your HDTV for a full home theatre experience.
|
Haptic keyboard: The latest on-screen
technology featuring haptic feedback,, provides a welcome feeling of accuracy to
users who once may have been hesitant to use a touchscreen only device. There is
even a split keyboard configuration so you can still hold the device comfortably
without losing usability. And with integrated Bluetooth v2.0 you can always use
an external keyboard and mouse if you prefer. |
|
 |
 |
|
Cube UI: The unique Cube UI lets you add and
remove programs for easy access at your fingertips. Select up to 36 programs for
each category and assign them to any of the available "bubble". Since programs
are arranged by type you can keep your productivity software separate from your
play software, and switch between them with the flick of your finger. A great UI
like this makes for an intuitive and satisfying
experience. |
Battery life:
The Viliv S5 has an incredible battery life, among the best of any UMPCs. With
up to 7 hours of video playback, 4.5 hours of live streaming TV from the web,
and 200 hours of standby time, the S5 to work for you on the morning commute, at
your big lunch meeting, and finally to relax with your favorite movie on the way
home.

4 of 5 Amazing Machine in a Tiny Package Friday, September 11, 2009
JP from Colorado Springs, CO
This miniature computer can do almost anything and it fits in my pocket. As an Internet/entertainment center, it's almost perfect. As an office/productivity tool, it really needs a physical keyboard. Although navigating through Windows on such a small screen can be tricky, the convenience of the small size -- and the excellent battery performance -- balance out the quirks nicely.

5 of 5 I carry it everywere Thursday, September 10, 2009
William from Colorado
I carry the Viliv S5 everywhere I go. I have been using the S5 for about 4 months and I must say I have become addicted to it. I first thought the screen was going to be too small for use. However after realizing that this little device gave me all the functionality that my pc laptop provided it soon became a must in my backpack. Small enough to stuff in the front pocket, powerful enough to power my 42 inch LCD in the living room (with optional cable), and enough memory to hold all my music plus a few DVDs. It is great for a person who likes to ride motorcycles, travel, and loves to take their entire media library with them. GPS enabled, full music library, a few movies, and all the surfing power you could need in the pc market. I think it is a must have for the café/coffee house surfer! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Pocketable Windows XP Computer Wednesday, September 09, 2009
A Customer from San Jose, CA
I have a Viliv S5 and love it. The battery runs for several hours on a single charge and it wakes up from sleep in about 3 seconds.
It's small enough to fit in a large pocket- like in a coat or most cargo pants.
One of the best things about the Viliv is that I can install whatever I want on it, including applications that I use on my desktop computer.
Make sure to get the leather case, it's actually pretty nice and it's saved my Viliv on a couple of occasions.
I have Office 2007 on mine and it runs just fine. I don't use it to enter a lot of data, but it's fine for reviewing and editing documents.

5 of 5 The Viliv S5 is my "must take with me" d Wednesday, September 09, 2009
A Customer from Munster, Indiana
I travel a lot for work and I was getting tired of lugging around my laptop with me everywhere. I was introduced to the Viliv S5 and I think it is one of the best purchases I've ever made! I love that I can store a bunch of movies on there, sync up my pictures from my camera (not to mention being able to upload them to Facebook or Picasa), have access to my entire iTunes library, sync up my work documents (Spreadsheets, Power Point and e-mail) AND on top of all that, I can use it as a GPS device and find local restaurants and get directions! (I purchased Street Deck - it was definitely worth the investment).
The Viliv S5 has pretty good battery life, too. So basically when I travel, I leave my iPod and my laptop behind. Plus, when I'm staying within the US, I save the company money by not renting out a GPS device from Hertz!
When I bought the device I was torn between the WiFi version and the 3G version. I think it's just personal preference. I have a MiFi card so that I can use it as a personal hotspot with my Viliv or my laptop anytime. Some people prefer to just get a 3G connection so they don't have to carry around something extra.
