PsiXpda UMPC – Another (expensive) MID-Phone

Meet the PsiXpda, a Windows XP running MID-Phone. Sharing a lot of similarity in terms of looks with the Digicube MID-Phone-50, the PsiXpda comes with an Atom Z510 processor (1.1GHz), built-in 3g and WiFi

It has a 4.8-inch display with WVGA resolution (800×480). It comes with 1GB of RAM which should run XP without any problems. It has two USB ports, out of which one is mini-USB.

There is a 1850mAh battery which should give you 2-4 hours of runtime. Weighing just 430gm, this should be very easy to carry around.

PsiXpda folks are promising non-XP installs too, including support for Android OS. We now know that Android OS runs pretty nicely, as Kamal loaded his EEE 701 with Android couple of days back and he gave it a thumbs up

Price: $830 (£500). High price, we know but how many similar devices do you see in the market?

Digicube Z8 MID uses Huawei WCDMA modem

Huawei, a popular brand that manufactures 3G and 3.5 modem is the company behind Digicube Z8 MID’s magic. It uses Huawei WCDMA module EM770 for its telephonic functions.

The Z8 MID has ATOM Z510 processor, 512MB RAM, 8GB SSD and runs Windows XP OS. It is equipped with 4.3-inch screen with 800X480 resolution.

Digicube Z8 MID – built-in 3G, runs XP

Today, the Digicube Z8 MID was silently (and officially) launched. It has an Intel Atom Z series CPU with US15W chipset, 1GB RAM, 16GB SSD and has built-in 3G module which will let you use your 3G SIM to enjoy broadband speeds on-the-move.

The best feature of this little MID is that it is based on x86-hardware which means that in theory, it can run any x86-compatible OS out there. For the time being, it will be sold with tried and tested Windows XP OS. But, we are sure that you won’t face much problems to get Windows 7 working on this little thing. Its 5-inch display has WVGA resolution (800×480) and weighs just 420gm, that too with its 1800mAh battery included

It has left and right click buttons flanked on the left side of the display. Speakers are at the back of the unit, just like cellphones.
