So Mix06 in Las Vegas is ending today and so far they have had a few speakers and items about up and coming products including the UMPC.
Set up at Mix06 are product booths including one that shows off Ultra-Mobile PCs. According to some of the news, the ultra mobile PC booth was an extremely popular place to be between conference talks and alot of people were snapping pictures of the things.
I was searching around for some info and pictures about the ultra mobile PC from Mix06 and came across this photo on [url=http://www.robzelt.com/blog/default.aspx]Rob Zelt’s[/url] [url=http://flickr.com/photos/58774112@N00/]flikr[/url] account of what I assume is a TabletKiosk V-700.(I can’t tell the difference between it and the PaceBlade in pictures alone.)

So this is the first real picture I’ve seen of any of the UMPCs with different colors besides white and black. We have been wondering about how many different colors there will be and talked a little about it in this forum post [url=https://www.umpcportal.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=85&forum=4]here[/url]
There was also some info up at [url=http://www.whatisnew.com/blogs/dailynews/archive/2006/03/22/7649.aspx]Whatisnew.com[/url] showing a Car & Driver WPF demo on a ultra mobile PC and Bill Gates talking about it during his keynote.
Hopefully some more pictures and information from Mix06 comes out about the UMPC. In the meantime however, there is evidence that there will be a few different colors as there is also a little red ultra mobile PC icon at the official Microsoft ultra mobile PC section as well.
Love the look of this theme, can’t wait to test it out when I get home tonight It looks very “personal” and gives the feel it beingdone by hand rather than a computer.
