Intel Menlow based MID
 
I just ran across this:

Looks a lot like the N810 except much better specs...

any speculation?

It looks like they are using the maemo icons (along with hildon)

no wonder, as its running midinux, a moblin variant, and it uses hhildon as a base.

As well as being much larger, having much shorter battery life and a significantly higher price tag.

I wouldn't say it's that much larger :)

For a prototype first edition device I think it's pretty awesome, certainly the first device to give the N8x0 a run for their money - particularly since they're significantly more powerful and run x86 software OOTB! I'm assuming with some more tweaking, particularly on the power management side - we could squeeze more out of it.

Price will definitely limit its use.

5528HKD, which is 670USD. If this thing can do more than 4 hours on I'll be terribly surprised.

The text seems to indicate 2.5 hours of typical use. Does anybody what the relation with the Gigabyte M528 is?

Dude... Google is your friend.

152 x 80 x 21.9mm - Aigo MID
128 × 72 × 14mm - Nokia N810

I'd not classify that as "much larger" by any stretch of imagination.

Added the N800, which is intermediate (though not what GA compared it to.)
And a sizeasy comparison.

interesting. seems i one should be able to carry it one the belt using a slyfox from urbantool then. recently tried it with my N800 and it has room to go on ;)
