Ultra-compact PC targets digital signage
,----[ Quote ]
| Habey USA announced an ultra-compact PC
| with a choice of Intel Atom processors. The
| BIS-6620 has a 4.7 x 4.7-inch footprint,
| runs at 1.1 or 1.6GHz, comes with
| CompactFlash and SD expansion slots, and
| uses just nine Watts, the company says.
|
| Habey's little BIS-6620 has a heatsink and
| case design strongly resembling Icop's
| similarly tiny eBox PCs (variously based on
| CPUs from Via and DMP Electronics), but
| we're unaware of any actual relationship
| between the products. According to Habey,
| the PC has a footprint of just 4.7 x 4.7
| inches, targets digital signage and media
| playback applications, and comes with
| Intel's original Z5xx Atoms -- either the
| 1.1GHz Z510 or the 1.6GHz Z530.

Cortus Announces uCLinux for the APS3 Family of Processors
,----[ Quote ]
| Cortus is pleased to announce uCLinux for
| the APS3 family of processors. This version
| of Linux is ideally suited to low power,
| high performance, embedded systems. The
| APS3 family of processors are modern,
| powerful processors, specifically designed
| for embedded systems, featuring a tiny
| silicon footprint.
|
| The APS3 architecture is ideally suited for
| uCLinux. The clean, uniform, architecture
| means that the ported kernel code is
| straightforward, easily implemented and
| understood. There are no hidden pitfalls
| due to inconsistencies in the architecture
| which could reduce performance or trip up
| unwary programmers. Developing application
| programs is uncomplicated and creating
| drivers for new peripherals and hardware is
| simple.

Under the Hood with MeeGo
,----[ Quote ]
| Some may be surprised by the merger, announced
| this week, of the open source Maemo and Moblin
| projects, given their architectural
| differences. Maemo targets ARM, while Moblin
| aims to enable devices with Intel Architecture
| (commonly "x86") processors.

Palm's Native webOS App Secrets Revealed
,----[ Quote ]
| The discovery of SDL's inclusion in webOS
| 1.3.5 really should have been enough evidence
| for you that something big was brewing, but
| destinal and Rod Whitby's (of WebOS Internals)
| latest discovery is proof positive: webOS
| 1.3.5 also includes a method for launching
| native Linux applications without any of the
| Upstart hackery we reported on yesterday.
