I’m still in the process of unravelling all the ARM-related news from Computex to see what’s important and what is not but maybe ARM just saved me the trouble of going through a lot of news articles. They’ve got all…

According to this report from the company, Disruptive-analysis, there’s currently 35 million global users of mobile broadband computing with Europe accounting for 50% of those users.

The summary is an interesting look at what could happen.

It’s always worth checking back on older models for reductions and clear-out prices so I took some time this evening to review the prices of some old favourites. I was disappointed. In general, prices haven’t really moved which is extremely…

According to Neilsen Online, the mobile Internet audience in the UK is young and growing very quickly in numbers. In the last quarter (Q2-Q3, 2008) the number of people accessing content via ‘mobile Internet’ [undefined] grew by 25% to 7.3…

In a recent ‘Thought Leaders’ study by Phil Hendrix of IMMR, a number of (US-based, I believe)people were asked the following question:

Three years from now, among individuals who own or use a PC, cellphone or smartphone, at home or work,…

I’ll be honest with you. I’m not sure what value this has for potential UMPC, Netbook and MID customers but its fun to look at!

It appears on the product overview page (which I’ve recently updated with more data columns and now…

That’s Ultra Mobile Devices to you and me and it’s a term I rather like. Anyway, back to the story where ABI Research tells us that the UMD market, comprising Netbooks, MIDs and UMPCs. (Don’t ask us which definitions they’re…

Reading Steve Litchfields review of the N82 this morning and then Warners interesting cogitations reminded of the multi-device strategy poll I posted a while back. Only a few days ago I was saying that I had been ‘locked-in’ to the N82 because…

Here’s a quick post about mobile blogging with the Kohjinsha SA1 Ultra Mobile PC.

There’s four three things that I want to show in this blog.

It looks like many notebook and early UMPC owners will get blocked out of an unspecified amount of Vista software due to Microsoft’s definition of a capable PC.

The man of few words but many images, videos and lots of very good UMPC/Vista info, jkkmobile,…

Last August I did a quick overview and a few calculations on the OLPC battery life using some stats that were lying around. I calculated 10 hours battery life.

I was wrong. According to a Linux Today report quoting Michalis Bletsas, Chief Connectivity Officer…

Pocketables have posted a nice detailed piece about DialKeys and the TIP (Touch/Tablet PC input panel.) There are some nice tips in there but what caught my eye were Jenn’s typing speed co-efficient’s. I know it sounds rather boring but its…

My new estimate for 2007 UMPC sales: 700,000 units.

Yesterday in the Computex website I read that ASUS were expecting to ship 10,000 R2H units per month in 2007. The R2H is currently one of, if not the, most popular UMPC on…

I respect Rob Enderle’s experience in product development and marketing but it doesn’t mean I have to agree with him does it. This article that compares the iPhone launch to the Origami launch is something I don’t agree with. The title has…

The S-Xgen is going to be launched at CES in just a few days. They are entering a tough market and although they mention UMPCs in their marketing, its the communicator phone segment that’s going to be the battleground for…

John Tokash makes a lot of sense to me in his recent post about the Nokia 770. He writes about how it fulfils the tasks he requires.

“…the tasks he requires.”

That’s the important bit. He analysed his requirements and…

I was just reading VentureBlog (no, I’m not getting funding, I got distracted on a browse-fest from Techmeme.) where David Hornik said he’d rather give up his TV than his Internet.

That’s an easy choice as far as I’m concerned. The TV would…
