SmartQ 5 MID English Version

Is allPMP waiting for the English version before it starts selling these ?

i don't know, but i hope SmartDevices will release the english version soon.

Nope.

You can 'Back order' [really its a Pre-order....] HERE.

SmartDevices is supposed to release the English version this month

Sorry, should have said "start shipping". I have had one on Back-order since 25th March (way past the 30 day refund date). I'm assuming/hoping that the reason it hasn't shipped yet is that allPMP are waiting for the english version. I have asked for clarification on this point via email.

It is possible to put Mer (open source Maemo)  on it so there may be option in having a English OS on it and perhaps be lighter.

Is there a simple 'how to' for installing Mer as I'm not a Linux user so would need handholding! (not that I've got the MID 5 yet)

Ha ha well you may have to ask those guys. I do use Linux (mainly SuSE) but I never really got into the more complicated Linux installs.

A wholsaler I know off has been having trouble getting a firm price (with a little profit) for the English version of the SmartQ 5 as he was figuring it was anywhere from $190 to even $210 to $230 with free shipping. At $150 I may still be interested in the English version turns out to work quite well, however at $200+ I may pass as that would be about $230cad.
