Sungworld MID to run on Android

Sungworld certainly has a nice surprise up their sleeves for everyone with a new Mobile Internet Device (MID) that has yet to be named. This model will be based on the ARM926 platform, where it will run on the Android operating system while boasting a slew of features that ought to keep any MID user happy, including a 7′ touchscreen display at 800 x 480 resolution, 512MB RAM, a 2GB SSD, Wi-Fi connectivity, 1080p video support and a HDMI port to let you view your full HD videos on a big screen in the living room. Hopefully it comes with a memory card slot of some kind, otherwise its 2GB storage space isn’t going to cut the mustard especially with full HD video content getting more and more popular these days.

Fujitsu LifeBook UH900 unveiled

[CES 2010] Multitouch seems to be the way forward in a myriad of devices, and Fujitsu does not let that fact escape them with the UH900 which tips the scales at just 1.1 pounds despite packing in in a 5.6′ bonded screen display with an Intel Atom Z Series processor running proceedings from within. In order to support multitouch, Windows 7 Home Premium is the operating system of choice. You can double this up as a GPS navigation system thanks to its integrated GPS receiver and Garmin GPS Navigation pre-loaded. Strangely enough, a 62GB SSD (why not 64GB?) was thrown into the mix to complement its Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, stereo microphone and an ECO button that helps prolong battery life. Expect to pick it up from next month onwards for $999. You will definitely have to retrain your fingers to work with its keyboard though since it is really, really small in comparison to netbooks that have grown in size over the years.
