From JKKMobile via Twitter: Meet Hanvon multitouch tablet
Oh boy. Hanwang is a company that seems to create a new eBook device every month.
Now they’re showing a mini-tablet that runs Windows 7.
First some screensnaps, then the video:
Notice the sealed back. I see no way to replace a battery.
MultiTouch — don’t get excited, watch the lag on the video.
Possibly: Audio Out, Audio In, USB port, SD card?
Hanwang/Hanvon. I guess they’re making the name easier for English speakers.
Now the video:
I’d like to get excited about this, but the price will be the thing. That and availability. At least it will be able to do eBooks via software: LIT via MS Reader, Mobi via MobiPocket Desktop, PDF via Adobe Reader/Adobe Digital Editions, etc. Although with an Atom processor, I’m not certain how successful any of that will be.
