A few days ago I commented about the Celio Redfly adding support for BlackBerrys. I came across that bit of information first while researching to purchase a Celio RedFly myself and then while I’ve been …

Sharp UMPC on video

Here are two videos I found of the WILLCOM D4 made by Sharp and already being sold in Japan.


Docking Station

This UMPC comes loaded with a Atom Centrino 1.3 GHz processor and 1 GB of RAM. That’s what I would call the minimum requirement to run Vista and that’s the OS that  Sharp has put in these devices.

I don’t know if Sharp is planning to sell it in USA or Europe but if you want to buy it you can do that at Direct from Japan, a specialized on line store in Japanese electronics.

    i think lap tops are not as good because they do not have as many gigs
  • cameron
    thanks

    Fully agree with you in both points. I do not use my laptop anymore.
  • gylman
    ctitanic... that's a big "if" for a specialty device like that.

    In response to Neil's comment, I can testify that I have a Gigabyte U60, and love it! Great for internet surfing, reading, and watching videos anywhere you like, and a sufficiently usable keyboard that I can deal with emails and minor documents. All my accounting is easily done on it as well.

    Don't knock these devices until you've given them a chance, Neil. In my opinion, they eliminate the need for a laptop.

    gylman if you can find the drivers there is nothing that stops you from using XP in one of this.
  • ctitanic
    Neil, have your ever used an UMPC?
    I have been using them for 2 years creating all kind of content including Visual Basic code and they are to me the best and more productive gadget I have ever owned. there is nothing like to have your Home PC with you at any time. Sure you can use a laptop but they are heavy and huge.
  • Neil
    Having a full desktop interface on devices this small just seem pointless and clunky to me. To me you need a more streamlined interface to make devices this small truly useful and not just something to showoff to friends.

    That being said the device itself looks really good.
  • gylman
    Another nice looking device that I would have considered getting, if I could get it with XP. Vista, though, kills the deal.
