New Handheld Sharp has just released the D4 -UMPC handheld!
Author: primaz | Tags:
Finally a UMPC that resembles a true Handtop! While it is not perfect it is to me a usable form factor that will gain a lot of attention and hopefully we will see more such devices reach the US!

It runs full windows Vista, has mini usb, SD slot, while not perfect it does have a normal keyboard, 3.3 inches by 7.4" by 1",weighs about 1 lb, 1.3 ghz atom, 1 gig ram, 40 gig HDD, wifi, bluetooth, 5" screen with 1024x600, gsm capable, has both slider and clamshell ability much lik

Bluetooth hack for the Asus 701 (Eee)
Author: tnkgrl | Tags: 701, pictures, Eee, hacking, Asus
Last week I researched how to subvert the Asus 701 (Eee)!

Last year I documented adding internal USB Bluetooth to another sub-notebook…

Now I’ve combined the two - I’ve added internal USB Bluetooth to my Eee without affecting the built-in wireless or using the empty mini PCIe card slot

Modding the Asus 701 (Eee)
Author: tnkgrl | Tags: 701, Asus, pictures, Eee, hacking
After spending several evenings exploring the motherboard of my Asus 701 (Eee) for USB signals and 5V (off in standby) here’s what I’ve discovered.

There’s a 5V trace (off in standby) that’s available without draining current from the existing USB connectors - take a look at the picture above, snapped with my Sony Ericsson K850i (then scaled to 640×480 and annotated).

Unboxing the Asus 701 (Eee)
Author: tnkgrl | Tags: 701, Asus, pictures, Eee
W-Eee I’m now officially one of the coolest kids on the block! I’m typing this post on my Asus 701 (Eee)…

I’ve quietly been keeping an eye on the Eee since it was announced a few months ago. After all, who’s not interested in a $399 ultra-portable sub-notebook?

Not to mention, it’s a particularly interesting device if, like me, you’re a blogger on-the-go, especially with the built-in webcam.

After using it for less than 24 hours I’m pretty impressed, and so are others, apparently. Th

02 Dead Keyboard
Author: mjolah | Tags: OQO
This morning I popped my 02 out of it's docking cradle, played with it for a few moments, then the keyboard went dead. Totally DEAD. The track stick still moves the cursor, but no keypress registers, nor do the lights light up on Fn, CTL, ALT or SHIFT. Teck support had me run through a few things, but then issued an RMA for repair. External keyboard still works.

Anyone else have this problem?

Author: windowsrooki | Tags:
The forums are all about the 02 now. And the blogs have been about the 02 too! So where have all the 01 users gone? I still prefer the 01 over the 02. Anybody done any mods, anything? 01 users speak up!

OQO vs. Flipstart
Author: edgemaster | Tags: FlipStart, OQO
Hello all,
I have a huge problem. I just cannot decide between these two devices.
I kinda wanna use these for a little gaming if that helps. Along with regular apps.
I would not use the WWAN on any of these so that is not a strong point.

My Points:
OQO: Small, Portable, Good Keyboard, Like design, Active Digitizer
No third party power options, Not as good performance, Not very good gaming performance, No other OS
FS: Semi-Small, Not as portable but still some, Great keyboa
