It’s hard to imagine carrying a netbook with you on the road only for the portable computer to become a drag on your biker’s lifestyle. As a non-biker myself I can imagine the benefits of an aerodynamic ultraportable for the true road warrior. Well, Shenzen has the answer. Meet the G-Five KTNO2, the netbook with [...]

We cannot confirm if Sagem has changed the specs of the UMID M1 mbook, but what we can say is that the renamed Sagem Spiga will go for less: 499 euros from the previous 600 to 700. It’s still the same tiny 4.8-inch (1024 x 600) screen netbook with the 1.1GHz Intel Atom processor, WiFi, Bluetooth, [...]

I am mildly amused by eviGroup’s media tablet offering. Simly dubbed the eviGroup Pad, it’s most distinct feature is the 10.6-inch resistive touchscreen. You’d think but you would be wrong. You see, the device wil feature an artificial intelligence by the name of Seline10. Yep, they say it’s an A.I. virtual secretary that will help [...]

Korean PMP manufacturer, COWON, has leaked the W2 MID, an Intel Atom device. We don’t know much except that it’s going to be touchreen and it will have WiFi connectivity. How big a touchscreen? Your guess is as good as mine. The COWON W2 wll probably compete with the new Archos Internet tablets. GMP3 is [...]

We’re glad that shipments of the Nokia Booklet 3G laptop are blazingly up-to-date now running the recently announced Windows 7. One disappointment is that the laptop spotted on Best Buy runs Windows 7 Starter Edition. For a $599 netbook, we would have expected Home Premium at least. Engadget tells us it’s a demo unit. Windows [...]

With the V7, the SmartQ V5 will introduce the V series internet tablets to consumers in China and, hopefully, around the world. With an 600 MHz ARM11 processor, adequate 256MB DDR2 RAM, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0 EDR and OTG, the SmartQ V5 is just a few inches short of the SmartQ V7. It’s practically the same [...]

In the US, at least, Best Buy will distribute the Nokia Booklet 3G exclusively at a much reduced price than earlier expected. The $599.99 is still a little pricier than other netbooks with similar specs, but we at PMP Today think it’s much better than $799, cloudbook or not. One way or another, it’s a tough [...]

Good day to you Nokia fans, the Finnish giant is officially in the laptop industry. The Nokia Booklet 3G is a promising little laptop (officilly, a mini laptop). It’s innovative looking and is a well-connected little critter that impresses on so many levels. It runs on Intel Atom like most other netbooks, but the unique [...]
