Wiederkehr des Psion 5mx: PsiXpda vorgestellt, demnächst in U.K. zu kaufen?

UMPC reboots Psion PDA form factor
2009-12-04
PsiXpda announced a UMPC (ultra-mobile PC) with a five-inch touchscreen display, an Intel Atom Z510, and a 16GB SSD (solid state disk). The "PsiXpda" includes WiFi, Bluetooth, and optional 3G, and weighs under a pound, and although it pre-installs Windows XP, the company says it will help customers load Android.
...
Architecturally, however, the PsiXpda is substantially different from the 5MX. The device uses a 1.1GHz Intel Atom Z510 processor, 1GB of RAM, plus a 16GB SSD, according to the U.K.-based company.
...
the device also has a full QWERTY keyboard, reportedly backlit, though no claim is made about this being big enough to allow touch typing.
...
According to PsiXpda, the device includes two USB 2.0 ports, plus a microSD expansion slot and a headphone jack. Networking is said to include 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.0, and 3G options (EVDO, WCMDA, and TD-SCMDA).

Die gute Nachricht für Psion-Fans:
"the UMPC will reportedly go on sale next week... "
und die nicht ganz so gute:
"... for 500 U.K. pounds (about $825)."
