CES 2008: iRiver Wing UMPC
,----[ Quote ]
| You’ve got to hand it to iRiver, they pump out some fantastic industrial
| design. Latest to prompt a small puddle of drool around my keyboard is the
| Wing, a flash-based clamshell UMPC with 4-inch touchscreen and full QWERTY
| keyboard. iRiver’s press release has it down as running embedded Linux
| Kernel 2.6, which is strange because some are reporting it to be a WinCE Pro
| machine; assuming the details from the horse’s mouth are correct, the 4GB of
| memory (and SD expansion) should be plenty for some compact Linux apps.

| iRiver, the portable media player people, surprised us by announcing the Wing
| today. This is a handheld PC with a 4" TFT color touch screen, clamshell
| design and WiFi that runs embedded Linux. Since it's from iRiver, it will
| have plenty of multimedia apps. Sounds like a super-portable EeePC. . . We'll
| post photos once they're available.
