Here’s one that slipped through the net at Computex.
I just got a tip-off on these images that were obviously taken at Computex 2006. Its got a UMPC form factor and I had never seen or heard anything about it until now.
The original website is here. (This product appears half-way down.)
It says ‘UMPC’ on the front but it looks like its running WM5
I’ve tried to find details but I couldn’t find anything. Anyone know anything about this one? Tatung are at CES so if someone could go and tap them up for info it would be great.
Tomorrow I’ll be getting ready to go to the UK to stay with family for the Christmas week and I’ll be pretty much offline until the 29th. Don’t expect too much from Carrypad over the next week.
One last thing though. As a blogger, I feel obliged to post one of those ‘top 3 best moments retrospective’ type posts but I’ll keep it short.
My best UMPC moment of 2006 was unboxing the Black Flybook V33i. She was good. Damn good!

But… can this be really called UMPC. This is not a PC in anyway… it use Windows CE which a cut down very down version of Windows. It has a lot of limitations. One of the reason why I’m using a UMPC is because of those limitations with PPC.
