Found this nice little gem over at www.overclockersclub.com:
Nice looking little thing. Also, this is a neat little gadget as it supports such high processors, ram, and HD capabilities. It will be interesting to see where this will end up in the long run.

They say the Ultra-Personal Computer can operate as a Palm-style wireless handheld.
But it can also become a desktop replacement when connected to a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
It's expected to hit US stores before the end of the year, priced around £700.
Executive vice president Colin Hunter said: "This is a full Windows XP computer that fits in your pocket. Most people would prefer to have a computer they can carry around with them all the time."
The device runs Microsoft Windows XP Professional on a Transmeta Crusoe processor, of up to 1 gigahertz. It also bundles 256 megabytes of RAM, a 10-gigabyte hard drive and two wireless networking connections.
Battery life is similar to a laptop's - lasting up to eight hours depending on use.
OQO says it is currently negotiating licensing agreements with electronics companies to manufacture and market the device. It's hopeful that the first machine can go on sale this winter.
