TangoX- UMPC a la Cloudbook but with a touchscreen
Word is coming out about a new Korean UMPC that looks very much like the troubled Cloudbook but with an important difference- there is a touchscreen. The link with a lot of photos is to a French site but it looks like the Sangjut TangoX has the following specs:
- Via C7 processor
- 1 GB of RAM
- 80 GB hard drive
- 800x480 resolution
- 4in1 card reader
- WiFi
- Integrated Skype phone
- Touch screen
Well, that shows that Everex's claim of a touchscreened CloudBook isn't so far-fetched after all.
And yet I can't see myself using a screen that small and with a hinge that won't twist and fold back for tablet-like use.
Besides, hasn't jk already made clear that we all need the palm-rejection technology of his Fuji to avoid vectoring and recognition problems?

Palm rejection would certainly make the whole thing work better as my experience tells me.

The keypad to the left ofthe screen in the picture above has been purported to be a detachable Skype phone.
In case you were interested...

I believe the name of the Korean company is Sungju and not Sangjut.
