GPS enabled BenQ MID

Jan 6, 2008 CES 2008, gps navigation, umpc

BenQ will be introducing a mobile internet device (MID) at CES 2008 called BenQ MID. Even though the press release does not mention an embedded GPS receiver a picture we found has an icon for GPS meaning the new device will have some sort of maps and/or directions capability – possibly using an external GPS receiver via bluetooth.

BenQ MID includes various wireless connectivity options such as WiFi and 3.5G. It will have a generous 4.8 inch touch screen which will let you browse the full-internet and still consume less power than regular UMPC’s.

We don’t have any info on pricing or availability but we’ll let you know as soon as we find out… via press release and clips.net
