"Fashion accessory" PMP camera runs Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| A style-conscious Samsung digital camera and personal media player (PMP) is 
| built on a MontaVista Linux platform, it was revealed by a reader. Shipping 
| since last year, the Samsung i70 features 7.2-megapixel resolution, 3x 
| optical zoom, and Samsung's ASR (Advanced Shake Reduction) technology.

Samsung signed a software patent deal with Microsoft though, so it's a company
to avoid.

Archos 705 "Mobile DVR" with WiFi unveiled, thanks FCC

,----[ Quote ]
| Very little is known about the functionality so far, but that whole
| "Mobile DVR" tag on the name could imply that Archos is packing a
| bit more TV-centric functionality into the device -- rumors have
| mentioned the possibility of a built-in TV tuner -- or perhaps just
| trying to position the same old, same old a tad bit better in the market.
