OQO 01
OQO’s dimensions can be compared to the dimensions of a PDA or handheld computers. However, it is a real PC, yes, a PC. This little machine has a 1 GHz processor equipped with 512 Mb of RAM and a hard drive of 30 Gb. The LCD is a 5 inch transflective display with a resolution of 800*480 pixels.

Believe it or not, this little thing has a 3D accelerating graphic card embedded. The manufacturers didn’t forget to include the 802.11b and Bluetooth technology for wireless networking, as well as FireWire and USB ports. It has included a complete thumb keyboard with TrackStik and mouse buttons as well as digital pen and thumbwheel. It has a removable lithium polymer battery embedded. Just 4.9 inches long, 3.4 inches wide, 0.9 inches thin, and weighing only 14 ounces (397 grams). It will fit in every pocket and now you can take all your applications with you, we are looking forward to see such a device with Linux on it. OQO

The research indicates that instead of sinking, carbon dioxide is often consumed by animals and bacteria and recycled in the “twilight zone,” a dimly lit area 100 to 1,000 meters below the surface. Because the carbon […]
