Gigabyte: M528 MID, M700 and M704 UMPC to launch at CeBIT.

Posted on 26 February 2008 by



Gigabyte have sent us a press release detailing the launch of three ultra mobile devices that will span across the ultra mobile segment. The smallest, the MID M528 will have a 4.8″ screen, include GPS, a conferencing camera and weigh only 340 grams. No images of the device are provided with the press release I have here but I’m almost 100% certain it will be the same as the device spotted at CES. (See Pocketables for more images.) The OS is unknown at the moment.

The second, one we’ve also seen before, is the M704. There are no details in the press release but lets assume it hasn’t changed much since they leaked it a while back. [specifications]

Finally, theres an unknown ’3C’ (insider talk for Computers/Communications/Consumer) product called the M700. Its a 7″ device with GPS and Express card slot.

The GIGABYTE M700 is a brand new versatile 3C product with a minimalist and white stylish design in appearance. Its 7” LED backlight screen with only 650g in weight and built-in Express card slot can support 3.5G and WiMAX. The unique dual-camera design not only offers a display for video communication with friends but also allows users to share image files. Additionally, the products integrates GPS that provides an innovative operating model on the control panel and powerful multimedia functions, allowing users to enjoy a versatile array of unique features and experience the unprecedented convenience of technology.”

All three devices will be demonstrated at CeBIT next week.

M528 – What we know so far is in the database. Check out the video and note that the Gigabyte MID seems to be the same as the Aigo MID.

Info on the M704 is here.
