Wibrain L1

The new Wibrain model definitely looks a lot nicer compared to the previous model wit the new curved designed compared to the old brick-like one. Many people thought it was hit by the ugly stick but personally I never had a problem with the design (though I would never be against improvement).
The Via C7 is now replaced with an Intel Atom CPU clocked at 1.3 GHz which should hopefully increase the power a bit more, though I believe they should have made it 1.6 GHz. I initially was looking at the Wibrain as a potential device but it just wasn’t “pocketable” and that is what I would want in a UMPC, if for no other reason of that then I would have bought the Wibrain as my initial UMPC. Well hopefully when it’s released I will be able to secure a demo unit and see how it compares to my OQO.
