I could be wrong but don't the gigabyte m528 type MIDs get their wifi though a sido card. I kinda think that's a bad idea compared to a built in module.

Hey, if you guys want to wait until my Monday update, I've got info on another company, a tiny little outfit really, who's producing a MID similar to the n810, but with a much better kick*** interface and features. It's like crossing the iPhone with the n8xx series. Still gotta dig out the press release from the pile of info I brought back with me, but once I find it, I'll include it in the update. Just check my site Monday for the info.

this was announced today by velocity micro. its the same comal mid / gigabyte m528 design but its going retail in the usa. for $500 I can see this selling very well especially with windows XP as most consumers are familiar with it. I think the rx-51 will need to be very special to compete with all these new pocket devices.
