Slide the HTC Shift out of its lined leather case, fire it up and you're confronted with a beautiful 7-inch, 800x480 touch screen on a device that weighs in at a shoulder-friendly 800 grams. It features Windows Vista Business Edition and is a little sluggish but runs cool and quiet.

"Are we entering a new era of mobile computing where the UMPC could be the only computer you ever need? The processing module you can take anywhere? Raon Digital are breaking into exactly that category of converged mobile devices with the new and interesting Everun Note. Here at UMPCPortal we’ve been lucky enough to get hold of one of the first samples out of the door for some long term testing but after 4 days of hard but enjoyable testing, were ready to bring you the full review."

"Touch is quickly becoming a common way of directly interacting with software and devices. Touch-enabled surfaces are popping up everywhere including laptop touch pads, cell phones, remote controls, GPS devices, and more. What becomes even more compelling is when this experience is delivered to the PC -on a wide variety of Windows notebooks, in all-in-one PC's, as well as in external monitors. In working with our broad ecosystem of hardware and software manufactures, we're excited to be showing some of the great work and investments we are working on in Windows 7." Vista Blog

UMPC Dubai is Back Online! PDF Print E-mail

Finally UMPC Dubai is back online! It’s been a very long time and we missed on lots of great stuff happening in the UMPC world. For the last four months the site was down due to web hosting issues by our host. Earlier it was getting lots of connection errors until the site went completely dead. I also blame myself because I didn’t take corrective action much earlier but my business and my work got in the way and I was completely stuck. It’s now moved to a new server and all the bugs were fixed already. Now I’m giving more time for UMPCD and I am happy that we’re live and back online.

UMPC Dubai (UMPCD) is a very special site to me, it reminds me of the very earlier days of PocketPCDubai.com (PPCD) when I started everything from scratch and seen how the site was growing. UMPCD is following PPCD’s foot-steps with unique content handling new technology. We believe UMPCs are evolving fast and we don’t want to miss on this experience.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and I will do my best to have more UMPC material to handle on the site. For now I wish you a very Happy Eid! ;-)

"I haven't had as long as I would have liked with the Amtek U560 so this review won't be as complete as previous ones but I think it will be more than enough to allow you to make your decisions on the device. The model I have here is a production sample that Mobilx.eu have loaned me. [Many Thanks!] It's not a final build so as with my testing on the HTC Shift, some things may change. Most noteably, the processor speed on the final production version."

"What UMPC device offers as many features as the Advantage?  The Advantage lists for $899 - not cheap, but you can find better deals if you look.  I picked mine up at CompUSA for $540 because they are going out of business.  You can even find them for under $800 on Ebay.  With few exceptions, UMPCs cost more...
