Excellent
THE GOOD
One of the smallest PCs we've ever seen; includes built-in TV tuner; less than 3 pounds; great design; includes both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
THE BAD
More expensive than competing Core Duo small-form-factor systems; fixed configuration; hard to upgrade.
THE BOTTOM LINE
With tons of features, including a TV tuner, built-in Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, packed into a tiny case, the WinBook Jiv Mini impresses with its features-per-square-inch ratio. We've not seen more features stuffed into such a small case.
