A few moments ago I posted an article on UMPCPortal to say that Carrypad is live. I wasn’t lying!
Welcome to Carrypad, welcome to a fresh focus on consumer handheld and mobile internet devices and welcome to a new community.
We’ve already loaded up the site with some fresh articles and I’d recommend that you take a look at the review of the Wirelession pad that Coldsun has posted. It’s an interesting, low-priced device based on a fast processor. The manufacturer is promising capacitive touchscreens and Android options in a very short timeframe. If you’re sad about the Crunchpad, this is something to watch. Speaking of Crunchpad alternatives, I’ve posted an article listing 6 devices that offer a similar experience. It won’t stop there though as we’re expecting a whole lot more pad-style devices in 2010.
Don’t forget to check out the list of products that we’ve got in the database and to sign up as a member. Get into the community section of the site and start connecting with others by creating a group around a product or application or searching for products and keyboards that people have in their profile.
Over the next 48 hours, expect a full review of the excellent Arcos 5 Internet Tablet and a competition to win a MIFI 2352 from our friends at Mobilx.EU
Welcome to Carrypad!
Congrats Steve!
been following u on umpcportal so now this is set on my bookmark too.
Good luck :)
If I may ask/request. There are so many devices lately for this market and I still haven’t bought anything. Why? since I can’t sort all of the devices by functionality. Functionality is subjective, but u can easily break it into a few categories.
I am looking for a device 5-7″ which is either XP or Android with two distinct features: GPS and Video conferencing like Skype.
So far I only knew about the X70, but didn’t like it.
Maybe through some cool search on your site we will be able to sort such queries.
Thanks and good luck again!

Thanks Tal. That’s exactly what we’re working on in the back-end! I hope it doesn’t take too long!
A full review of the Archos? Oh how I’ve been waiting for that! Keep up the good work Chippy, my wife doesn’t appreciate it.
Cheers Chippy!
Best of luck with the new site. We’ll be following along with baited breath on every pearl of wisdom emanating from your posts!
We’ve put up a newborn website announcement to show off your offspring to our Asian focused audience.
