Aigo MID Phone – How about running XP on your phone?
Although we have seen plethora of netbooks and MIDs running Windows XP, but only a handful of companies have come up with the concept of XP-Phone. The Aigo seems to have one in development. It has left and right mouse buttons on the either sides of the device and sports a slide-out keyboard just like many HTC phones. It is also rumored to have an Intel Atom processor. It will have the ability to send and receive calls as-well-as sending and receiving messages.
Commentary: To run Windows XP, you must use an X86 platform, which rules out the possibility of using ARM processors. However, if folks at Aigo use a Linux instead, it may be possible to use the ARM processor and thus it may be able to give the user at least a day of battery life, which is important for a device to be used as a phone. Otherwise, no one would be interested in carrying a huge brick which can give them just few hours of battery life.
