Compumax (Bogota, Colomobia) is set to release it’s ‘Hyper Android Tablet’ sometime in the near future.

Computex is now coming to an end, but Run SSD have released a video revealing a GNB netbook/UMPC that is really something a bit different. The device is tagged as the ‘750’ and sports a 7-inch touch screen running Google’s Android. It is somewhere between a netbook and even a UMPC as it is super small and super light, weighing only 680g. Inside, the UMPC offers a solid state drive (SSD), the capacity of which ranges from 2GB to 8GB. Similarly, you can have either 128MB or 256MB of RAM. Combine this with the Freescale i.MX31 CPU and we’re looking …

by Michael Oryl on Jun 04, 2009 0 Comments">0
Taiwanese electronics manufacturer BenQ announced earlier today that it plans to put out an Android powered smartphone and possibly an Android powered netbook next year. The announcement was reported by IDG News’ Dan Nysted: The company hopes to market an Android-based smartphone next year, a BenQ representative said, as it attempts to rebuild its name in mobile phones. A netbook based on Android is also in the works, but its makeup hasn’t yet been decided.

ECS netbook will offer Android
by James Tromans on Jun 03, 2009 1 Comments">1
Computex looks like a really good show, and ECS have on display a prototype of their 8.1 inch T800 netbook offering. The prototype device is not in working order, but the build is comparable to what the finished version will be like. It looks wonderful and would appear to resemble the Sony Vaio P a bit. Even though the T800 is a puny 800g (1.76lb) light, it still manages to pack a 2.5 inch SATA hard drive and 512MB of RAM. Our best guess is that the hard-drive may be swapped for an SSD as well. On top of this, the Texas …

Rumour mill: Android netbooks from MSI at Computex?
by James Tromans on Apr 24, 2009 1 Comments">1
Another one attributed to the DigiTimes’ rumour mill. Once again, citing one of its favourite sources, the Chinese language “Economic Daily News”, DigiTimes state that MSI will be revealing their first Android netbook offering at the Computex 2009. Computex Taipei has become the largest computer exhibition in Asia and the second largest in the world, next to CeBIT in Germany.It would certainly be a suitable place for MSI to announce an Android based netbook. As usual, I don’t automatically trust “news” from DigiTimes, but hopefully this snippet is bang on. We’ll find out on June 2nd when Computex starts.
