We’ve got a ‘simulpost’ with Chippy’s [url=http://blog.carrypad.com]Carrypad blog[/url] for you this morning with news about the Mobits Bebos device.

As we reported on Saturday, Mobits appeared to have a few Origami-like deivces in development. Today we’ve had an email response direct from Mobits confirming that the Bobos device is an ‘Origami product’ and that there is a 7″ and interestingly a 5.6″ variant (pictured top).

Don’t get too excited just yet as these are products waiting for a customer to take them into tooling and production. Mobits, however, are saying that they expect ‘MP’ (Mass Production) in August which shows a certain level of confidence that this device is going to make it through to customers.

The MoBits company has (or is part of) another company called [url=http://www.mobitia.com/index.htm]Mobitia[/url] that has a website with more information on their prodcuts, a few other interesting devices and details about a common device chasis which has been developed.
