MWg Roadmap shows WM7 Device

post from Ubergizmo on 12 May 2008 01:16:25 AM. © Ubergizmo

MWg's recent roadmap presentation threw up an interesting prospect to observant attendees - apparently Q4 2008 will be an exciting time as the first crop of Windows Mobile 7 devices will be released then. Doesn't make much sense when you realize that the timeline between version 6.1 and 7 is extremely short, but perhaps Microsoft could be getting desperate as they try to gain more foothold in the mobile device market, especially with Apple's 3G iPhone due this year? The Windows Mobile 7 devices in question will be the MWg Flame II, the MWg Atom IV and the MWg Vix.

PS3 innards Head for Toshiba TVs

PS3 innards Head for Toshiba TVs

Toshiba will soon use PS3 technology in its new range of TVs and notebooks, where the SpursEngine chip (incidentally co-developed between Toshiba and Sony) will be able to handle majority of video and multimedia processing while freeing up the main processor's resources for other tasks. Toshiba did run some benchmark tests, claiming that HD processing which used to take an hour now takes just one sixth that amount of time. Unfortunately, no PC games are optimized for the SpursEngine chip at this point in time, so you'll still need a dedicated graphics card if you want to get some gaming in between your work time. I find it interesting that Toshiba and Sony went head to head against each other when it came to Blu-ray and HD DVD, but are pretty close buddies with the SpursEngine.

FCC Evaluates HTC Touch Diamond

FCC Evaluates HTC Touch Diamond

The HTC Touch Diamond might be recently announced, and the folks at the FCC certainly wasted no time getting their hands on it. Apparently, the Touch Diamond is just a few approvals away from marketing, and this will probably mean such a handset will beat the 3G iPhone out of the stable doors. All specifications on the HTC Touch Diamond are still unavailable from the FCC site, but a cross-section blueprint of its innards display relatively clean and simple lines, which is always a good thing. Best you start saving up your cash now if you want this highly desirable handset when it is released.

E-Ink e-Paper Display Technology

E-Ink e-Paper Display Technology

E-Ink has rolled out a new generation of e-paper cells, being up to 40% thinner and can be bent into other forms such as curves, allowing future devices to come in a wide range of form factors. Not only are they more flexible, they are also of a superior breed so to speak, being able to survive harsher temperatures thanks to its extremely power-efficient designs that make it able to stand more exposure outside. There are no future products to use such a display announced at press time, but E-Ink did mention that companies using their earlier e-paper display technology will be able to receive a custom display within three months' time, which makes the earliest of such devices available this fall. I wonder whether this means there will be new iRex iLiads and Sony Readers in the works?

Green House has a spanking new USB fan for all of you summer lovers - after all, blogging with your shirt off while sweating profusely isn't exactly the most appealing sight on the earth. This USB-powered peripheral will come in white, classic, pink and blue colors, weighing a mere 290 grams. It won't take up too much desk space though, measuring 145mm x 133mm x 200mm. No idea on how much this will cost, but being a fairly simple piece of technology you ought to be able to purchase a couple of these without causing any noticeable damage to your wallet.
