Acer started by buying Eten, you know, the company that makes the glofish mobile devices. Then they stated their intention to start focusing a major portion of their efforts on Ultra Mobile devices.
acer is announcing a new “notebook PC concept” in New York very shortly, and I’m delighted to tell you that SlashGear.com is bringing you the up to minute coverage. The press event is hosted by the BIG BOSS, acer’s very own president, Gianfranco Lanci. Stay tune for more info.

This interface is cool, I’ll give it that. You can’t really tell much, so you’ll have to watch the video, but they way they can just move, resize, remove, and bring up new objects is pretty amazing, and the fact that it all works and displays on a transparent surface is even more awesome.
This device is fairly amazing, not only does it look great, but its small and feature-packed. It has a 4.3-inch WVGA touchscreen, DMB and DMB PIP digital TV and WiBro (like WiMAX, but slightly different).
The problem with having the new N95GB imported from Europe before the North American version is released is that the nifty HSDPA won’t work. But alas, Nokia has finally blessed us with an NAM version that has the US spec HSDPA inside.
Rumors are abound on the internet right now, but word is that Sprint might be looking to sell off Nextel to stifle losses from its weakest performer. Several factors have caused Sprint to be forced into trying new tactics including offering up unlimited everything plans for as low as $99.
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.

Panasonic has taken their ToughBook line to the next level with this new hardened UMPC. Its weather proof and I presume, much like its larger predecessors, can take a hell of a beating.
This platform is for setting up your VoIP network. It has the ability to be upgraded and works with all sorts of VoIP communications devices. It even has integrated desktop and network applications.
