This is just perfect for the Vega. Why? Because the Vega is about the only ultra mobile PC that fits on every dashboard.

Here’s the image from Hugo at UberTablet. There’s more on the way apparently. Be careful when videoing that high-speed chase sequence Hugo.

 
See Hugo’s blog for the key.

Our only question is, can you buy the mount without the USB GPS solution? What if you have a BT receiver already? There’s no word on price or availability yet.

There’s a 4-part posting on using the Vega in a car over at Carrypad, out partner site.

Part 1 is here.
Part 2 is here.
Part 3 is here.

Gizmodo got hands on. Its an Amtek T770, will go into production in May and is expected for $800. Another point for VIA. Technorati tags: amtek, umpc View details of all Ultra Mobile devices in the ultra mobile PC product database. From N800 to Flybook V5, its all there!

This is from DigiTimes. Initially, the UMPCs are likely to be available at around US$800, with the price expected to go down to or even below US$700 by the end of 2007, said other company sources. As I thought, It will go head to head with the ASUS R2H and be marketed as a consumer product. Arima are expected to ship to Medion in Q1 as expected. From other news I’ve heard, that will mean Medion Germany. (HQ) where sales will start first and I expect this will start a […]

Engadget said: At Via’s booth at ShowStoppers, there were about seven different UMPCs Lets count. Easybook P7 (Amtek), P8, VX-3 (Mobits), X-15 (Mobits), X17 (Mobits), Q1b, OQO, Medion, Dualcor, Uren. There’s quite a lot of VIA solutions. Why didn’t anyone spot them and report on them?  I’m sure if the DualCor had been there someone would have reported it. Take a look at this: Its a selection of cuts from Engadget’s Medion video. Bjorn Bjorn Bjorn. What’s going on there? (It was Bjorn from UltraMobilelife in the video) It doesn’t look […]

Loads of pics of the Intel ultra mobile PC stand at CES on this Engadget gallery. There’s a new one labeled ‘WINGMAN’ and the swivel-screen one we’ve seen before.    Click to enlarge.   But what about this:  “…Intel exec demonstrating “Yahoo! Go for UMPC” to Yahoo’s CFO” So Yahoo GO for UMPCs is on the cards now is it? If its all optimized for touch it could be fun to create your own ultra mobile PC desktop. Shame that the Origami Experience isn’t a browser too. You could throw some Yahoo […]

Did I hear him say ‘well under a thousand dollars.’ Yup. Check out the video. On battery life: “Getting 4 hours.” On availability: “Out in Europe first.” Europe will be getting it ‘1st quarter’ so I’m thinking March/April for the US. Probably without the DVB-T too. Maybe I should start exporting them! Engadget said the keyboard was ‘crap’. That’s not what Kevin said. I think I’ll trust the guy who uses mobile PC’s all the time. Steve.   Technorati tags: medion, umpc View details of all Ultra Mobile devices in the […]

You have no idea how frustrating it’s been to sit here in Europe knowing that the Medion ultra mobile PC was at CES and no-one had reported on it. Our man Kevin came up trumps at the last minute though and I’m really happy to hear that he liked the keyboard. I’ve had a few discussions with people about the Medion, made cardboard cut-outs and have been trying hard hard hard to get more info out of Medion. Its nice to get so real info. Image: JkOnTheRun. Kevin says: The […]

Great news from SMSTextNews today. The X-Series data plan from UK’s 3 network is really an unlimited data plan for 5 pounds ($10) a month. I was extremely skeptical about the phrase “unlimited web browsing” but Evan received his bill and it was….Zero. He’s used a number of non X-series apps and all have been covered buy the data plan. Interestingly, he used Shozu. Shozu does not use web ports or protocols. It uses port 110 (POP3) which has nothing to do with Web Browsing. But there’s a bizarre twist […]
