UMID is the little pocket computer that can: it’s cheap, small and full-qwerty. It sold out and has been difficult to find since its midsummer launch–even review units are hard to come by. UMPC Portal wanted to see if another boatload would head west, and got a reply:
Since there have been LCD shortage, we are not able to supply enough qty, but we are expecting to get delivered enough products beginning of Sep. with Black model also.
It’ll be shipped by official importer Dynamism soon, UMID promises. Dynamism itself lists Aug. 25 for the next batch.
Update on UMID availability, screen issues. [UMPC Portal]
How much is “cheap” exactly?
It’s cute & cool, but the non-standard connectors kill it for me. Not even a 3.5mm headphone jack…
