Default New Android MIDs from Eston break cover

Android is turning out to be a popular OS for more than just smartphones. Some computer makers still have Android-powered netbooks coming and MIDs are starting to surface with the OS. As Android grows in popularity, I am sure we will see it turn up on more and more devices.

Default Re: New Android MIDs from Eston break cover

Imagine my horror at the tiny Windows key at the bottom left. This article doesn't mention it, but the original link says it can dual boot Android and CE.

Some other details are wrong: Eston's MID-02 slider has a 624MHz Intel XScale PXA300 processor, paired with WiFi a/b/g, an SDHC card slot and USB 2.0 connectivity. The specs given in this article apply to the 2nd device, the French SFR M! PC Pocket, which is actually the P8860 rebadge.

The Eston internals are somewhat interesting... but the design is less than inspiring. Those unbeveled, square keys can't be any fun to type with, either.
