Samsung’s Snapdragon-powered sequel to its Q1 series of ultramobile PCs is nearing production. A Qualcomm official quoted by Aving offers a release date within the month; the unit itself will support a 1GHz CPU, 3G internet, a 12 megapixel camera, GPS, HD video and “all day battery life,” whatever that means.
To be released as a MID, or Mobile Internet Device, the new machine will also have a 600 MHz digital signal processor, WiFi and Bluetooth.
LG, however, opted for Intel’s Atom instead of Quallcomm’s Snapdragon set; its 4.8″ model will have a 40GB hard drive, 3G support and stouter 1.8 GHz speed.
