More UMPC Pics

Microsoft's 'Origami' is no more than a new user interface for a tablet PC - Intel's mini-tablet form factor Ultra Mobile PC (UMPC), to be precise. Intel showed several machines it described as prototypes and reference platforms at its developer forum this week, and we have few pictures.

TabletKiosk V-700 UMPC

What, another UMPC? Don't tell us you thought the Samsung, Asus and Founder UMPCs we checked out earlier this week were the only ones out there. Like it or not, the UMPC is now a real product category (at least for now), and that means we're going to see more of these little boxes coming out over the next few months (though at least they won't be accompanied by cryptic, annoying, overblown hype campaigns). Like this one, from TabletKiosk, a company known for, yes, PCs designed for use as tablets or in kiosks. The company's entry to the UMPC market is the V-700, with specs that look consistent with the other UMPC's we've seen (though this one doesn't have an Intel processor): VIA C7M at 1GHz, max RAM of 1GB, 2.5-inch HDD up to 160GB, 7-inch 800x480 display, and the standard array of buttons (and, of course, no specifics about pricing and battery life, the two most closely held secrets in UMPC-land). In fact, if you look closely at it, you'll see that the V-700 is one of the boxes that we saw a few days ago, back when the hype machine was in full swing. Of course, it didn't have any branding (and current pics still don't). But it's nice to see that at least some of those pics were real, rather than Photoshop projects from people with way too much time on their hands.

Code-named Origami

Formerly code-named Origami, the new design is for an ultramobile computer, or UMPC. The idea is to have a device with much of the same power and features of a notebook or tablet computer in about half the size.

The product represents only the latest effort by Microsoft to create a market for a new class of portable computers. Although notebook computers have seen enormous growth in recent years, the market for related products such as PDAs and tablet PCs has been limited at best.

Some analysts say the same will be true for the UMPC, at least in the near term.

The UMPC concept faces a number of obstacles to mass adoption -- and to having a meaningful impact on Microsoft's results -- analysts say. Price, market perception, the lack of major vendor support at launch and the actual physical design of the device all could work against the concept, analysts say.

As sketched out by Microsoft, the typical UMPC device would have a seven-inch touch-sensitive screen, weigh less than two pounds, include a 30GB to 60GB hard drive and a built-in wireless networking antenna, and run on an Intel or Via mobile processor.

Unlike PDAs running Microsoft software, the computer would run a full version of Microsoft Windows. In addition to allowing users to enter data via the screen, some versions would also include a keyboard.

Buzz about the UMPC concept has been building for weeks, centered first on a enigmatic Web site devoted to the Origami project and then on a related announcement by Intel at its developers conferencein San Francisco this week.
