I was just looking at the Sony UX and OQO again.

Couple of new things I found out and some thing I just hadn't really
paid attention to before:

The Sony UX90-SSHDD has 16GB of solid state storage instead of a
rotating drive. (and a little bit lighter).

The Sony UX's have a touch screen whereas the OQO requires using the
stylus (if I'm wrong about this, please correct me).

The Japanese versions of the Sony have compact flash slot instead of
the EDGE modem.

The Sony UX comes with a 5.5" dongle with VGA, ethernet and A/V jacks
(it also comes with the previously mentioned desktop stand/docking
station).
