MWg (Mobile and Wireless group,) a Singapore-based company formed from the old O2 Asia company is coming to Europe with a new ‘connected’ Vista-based mobile device to be released in Q4 2008.

MWg’s entrance into the European market is backed by Expansys and was launched [PDF] last week in London where Modaco was present to capture the roadmap on video. They picked up on a Windows Mobile 7 device which could be interesting but the one that caught my eye was the MWg Walk which is supposed to be a ‘Shift-esque UMPC.’

Shift-esque + a mention of the word ‘MID’ + late 2008 launch smacks of a new HTC device running on Menlow which would be awesome (apart from the Vista part of course!) Check out the video below for images of the roadmap. The UMPC is mentioned in the last 10 seconds of the video.
