This device is an actual UMPC, not a mobile internet device, and it has a 7” screen and 780 gram weight to prove it. The screen on this one is an actual touch-screen though, meaning you can control everything from the screen.
It also has a 1.3MP camera with a snapshot key (so you don’t have to stab the screen and mess up your shot to capture it). It also has 802.11b/g and GPS so you can connect wirelessly and use this thing for directions.
Its small, the camera is front mounted so you can do video conferencing, and I presume it runs some version of Windows, but there is no mention of it. There is also no mention of price or when you’ll be able to get one.

Well, how about that “Designed for Windows xxx” logo on the middle of the keyboard?
