Porient to Show H12 UMPC at Hong Kong Electronics fair.

Posted on 25 February 2008 by Chippy



porienth12It was almost exactly a year ago when we heard about the Porient H9 ‘UMPC’ It was an ARM-based Linux device and didn’t exactly set the UMPC world on fire. Maybe the H12 will do better. It certainly looks better!

The only specs we have to go on at the moment are:

4.8″ TFT touch screen

GPS built-in

I guess we’re looking at a rendering here so I won’t take too much from the fact that it appears to be running Safari (I think) in a very high resolution. I will say that it looks difficult to operate though. Could it be made for a new touch-only linux distro? We’ll have to wait until 14th April to find out.
