Sometimes, buying the latest gadget is a lot like love. I spent months trying to get my hands on the Viliv S5 UMPC ever since it was announced but to no avail. Not even in Korea which is where Viliv’s based in. I went all the way to Yongsan (Korea’s answer to Japan’s Akihabara) but no luck at all. Those guys haven’t even heard of Viliv! So I gave up and stopped looking for a while. And guess what, I bumped into this baby while I was strolling at Funan DigitaLife Mall yesterday and managed to persuade the guy to sell me a unit without pre-ordering. Apparently they’re gonna have a big official launch event here in Singapore tomorrow. Talk about perfect timing.
