ZTE packs 3G, Maemo into its V7 MID

By Dan A.
Sure, Android has been getting plenty of attention from MID manufacturers as of late, but we all know that’s not the only mobile OS worth a gander. Debuted by ZTE “at a ceremony dedicated to the 3G technology” at Shanghai’s World Expo the V7 MID is roughly 4.7 x 3.3 x .5-inches and features the Maemo OS and — for those of you who value function over form — a physical QWERTY keyboard. Also on board are a 4.1 inch (800 x 480) display, a 3.2 megapixel webcam, and support for 3G CDMA1X, EV-DO, and HSDPA. But that ain’t all! Rounded out by a Marvell PXA310 processor (806 MHz), GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, micro USB, and an SD card slot, we imagine that all you mobile Internet fans will be able to put this thing to good use. No price or release date yet, those are but two of many mysteries this device raises. Which leads us to our next question: What goes on at a “ceremony dedicated to the 3G,” anyways?

MPIO V7 PMP hits October 26th, 2009, we struggle to contain ourselves

By Dan A.

It’s been a pretty long while since we heard anything from MPIO — so this is certainly good news. The V7 — a 3-inch PMP which will apparently boast a (possibly capacitive) touchscreen LCD, an accelerometer, and an FM radio, at a thickness in the neighborhood of 10.5mm. We also know that it’ll come in both 4GB and 8GB varieties — but specs beyond this are sadly absent. We’ll see what else we can dig up for you, but look for it to run ₩129,000 for the 4GB model and ₩159,000 ($109 and $134, respectively) for the 8 when it launches on Korea on October 26th.
