Lenovo & Aigo MID Photos

Just noticed this tweet from Josh Bancroft of Intel and Tiny Screenfuls. He’s been in Shanghai all this time and has been updating his blog on his experiences there.

Here’s a set of 33 photos: » link to World Exclusive: Lenovo and Aigo Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs) at Intel Shanghai – a photoset on Flickr 4 minutes ago from twitterrific Icon_star_empty reply to jabancroft

Update: Josh posted a writeup on his blog about the gallery..

Archos 606 adds 3G

image

French site Archos Lounge announced the upcoming Archos 606 PMP/MID which will include 3G.  It appears to be an upgrade to the WiFi enabled Archos 605.  No word on availability but I’ll assume France only at this time.

A few details:

  • Slightly bigger screen than 605
  • All black
  • 30GB drive
  • Support for Opera widgets

Could be a great alternative to the iPhone/iPod Touch, Nokia Internet Tablets, and MID’s if you favor media playback and/or recording as a main feature.

N810 get a $90 price cut

You can now grab a Nokia N810 for $389.99 retail.

Nice call but I think it should be lower at around $300.

Wonder which forces are pushing Nokia to lower the price of the N810 at this time.

  • The MID’s coming around the corner with the Gigabyte M528 appearing to be very competitive?
  • iPhone/iPod Touch SDK released?
  • WiMax enabled N830 coming?

Nokia has a lot to worry about in a few months.  Hope they can respond with something.
