Samsung Mondi
The Korean firm is set to release it’e own version of the pocketpc-type gadgets like the Shift and Athena with their release of the Mondi which looks like the Nokia 810 WiMax Internet Tablet. It sports Microsoft’s new Mobile OS 6.1 Professional with a slide-out querty keyboard. Opera 9.5 is bundled which makes a promising net enabled device for easy browsing and email access. The most outstanding feature of their version of this tablet PC is the fact that it has an HDMI output, along with 4 gigabytes of internal memory, a 3mega-pixel camera. One downside is that it is strictly a net device which has no call functions which is seen as their biggets mistake (just hope somebody gets some VoIP in there to make it all worthwhile). Being WiMax enabled makes it a very powerful wireless device indeed adding power to it’s WiFi powers. The only solution to this would indeed be somebody developing a very nifty soft-VoIP application to give it more bite.
