oqo: Passport sized PC

Nov 17 2005 Published by richard under tech

I’d love to check one of these out. An OQO handheld computer. Bowen has been looking for something like this for a long time. Are you watching Bowen? Anyways I’m not endorsing this yet, I wonder what Engadget or Gizmodo have to say about it…

This team just raised a $20 million dollar series D on the promise of demand for these little computers. Specifically called out is demand in government agencies.

Some partial specs:

  • 1GHz processor
  • 30GB hard drive
  • 512MB of RAM
  • Color transflective display
  • Integrated wireless (Wifi and Bluetooth)
  • FireWire port
  • USB port

At 4.9 inches long, 3.4 inches wide, 0.9 inches thin, and weighing only 14 ounces it’s pretty small. Think “fat” passport.
