Congratulations to Brad Linder today as he launches mobiputing.com What a great name!

As you can probably guess from the name, mobiputing is and will continue to be a sister site to Liliputing. But while Liliputing is focused…

Carrypad and UMPCPortal are 4 years old….and we picked up an award!

The Guardian UK have just tweeted that there’s a press conference on Monday at MWC with Nokia and Intel.

Presumably they just got an invite.

Luckily for us, I’m going to MWC as…

Another CES ‘leak.’ This time it’s the UMID BZ 4.8” clamshell UMPC which is very similar to the Viliv N5 we’ve just reported on.

The BZ has also been known in the past as the M2 and also…

Details of the Viliv N5 and S10 have leaked before the planned CES launch.

The Archos 5 is neither a professional or mobile internet device. There’s no 3G, the web experience isn’t complete and the stability of the device means you probably shouldn’t be doing anything important on it.

Having said that, the Archos 5 is quite an amazing multi-faceted handheld web device that sets a new standard for an ARM-based web experience and pushes the entry level pricing down to consumer levels. Battery life is great and the video performance beats anything you’ll get on a UMPC.

You may have seen the Kohjinsha dual screen netbook concept floating around the web recently, but apparently they are actually going to be putting this thing on the market. The unit will go on sale as the Kohjinsha DZ,…

I was at MDC09 in Munich today and picked some new news. Always good for a blog I feel! I also saw Quake III being demonstrated on a Moblin-based netbook using the latest Linux drivers from the Moorestown build. Read on…

Chippy wrote about it not long ago and it looks like he was right on the money. At IDF 2009, Intel has announced the Intel Atom Developer Program, the ‘app store’ framework for mobile atom products.

Don’t…

Chippy has posted a video of the Moblin 2.1  at IDF 2009. Moblin is Intel’s open source operating system project for MIDs and netbooks. While it is already up to version 2.1, it has seen very little adoption so…

Update: Great marketing trick from Amazon.de The price is back up to 599 Euros today. (18.09.09)

Somewhat earlier than expected, the price of the Nokia N900 has dropped. At Amazon.de (Germany) you can now pre-order the device for 558…

If you’re at IFA for the last day of the event today, please keep your eyes out for a brown Gigabyte T1028G. It was stolen from the Netbooknews team as they waited around in a press area yesterday. More important…

No word on availability of the booklet or N900 from the Nokia keynote but a couple of prices:

Booklet: 579 Euros

N900: 500 Euros.

The question is, are these pre-tax prices because the N900 is still available for 599…

If you’re following the netbook scene closely you might have seen that an EeePC roadmap has been leaked (full info at the eeeuser forum) showing a range of 1005HA devices and an 1101HA. Minimum screen size – 10”

No…

The good news is that my local online Nokia shop is now offering the N900 for pre-order with an estimated availability of 1st October. The bad news is that Nokia’s 500 Euro price estimate was a pre-tax price. In Germany…
