MWg was formerly known as O2 Asia, which hasn’t made anything new in a while. Even better yet, they are going to try and tackle the biggest competitors in that area, names that even US citizens are familiar with.
Those competitors are GigaByte, Everun, Fujitsu, and more that are making UMPC’s. Right now they have their UBiQUiO 711 UMPC that they are selling in the US and in Europe.
They are going to start integrated wireless charging into some of, or all of their new products by the second half of this year. That technology will be coming from Splashpower, a UK based company that has been working on the tech for a while now. Good luck surviving in the new UMPC market MWg.

It looks like the Dualcor computer than never was sold.
If they want to get into UMPC market they should not copy the other designs as they are all so far off target nobody is buying them in any real numbers. If they make a touch type keyboard UMPC that is jacket pocket in size they can make big sales in UMPC. The perfect design to copy is the Psion 5mx; make that into a UMPC and they will sell millions.
