 Does somebody have idea how GSM could be added there?
 Voice is most important feature for me. 3G and so on, could be
 connected to touchbook part. May be its possible attach some gsm
 board? (FR's or others).

 Yeah, 3G will be killer feature!
 I really like their concept of mid inside tablet inside netbook.
 But why without GSM?

 That's a question ! They have a killer MID, but without any 'mobile'
 connectivity... They may have forgotten, that's the only thing I see.

I've asked them about missing this feature.
Here are answer:

We do not have a 3G or GSM option because we do not want to force a
subscription on customers.  Instead we want to focus on using wifi and
free Skype calls.

Interesting ! But i guess that 3G would make a great overhead on the price,
i don't think such a device could hit the mass market even if it's _REALLY_
cool, therefore they cannot cut the price of a 3G chip by ordering a lot of
them.
And GSM isn't innovative anymore ;) I heard that some countries will just
have 3G in the near future

Help from Always Innovative ?

2010-09-20 Thread Thomas HOCEDEZ
 Hi,

As I was surfing, I found that the company Always Innovative(1) is
selling a new mini PC (3.5). It's ARM8 based, touch interface, but
without any GSM connectivity.
A.I. is producing open hardware, they already have production processes,
a well knowledge in Arm and also other good point (founder is French ;-)).

So, does anybody think a collaboration maybe helpfull ?

Probably you meant company named Always Innovating[1] which is selling
a netbooks/tablets/MIDs* based on OMAP 3530 [Cortex-A8 (ARM11)].

[1] http://www.alwaysinnovating.com
* Touch Book, Touch Book II, Smart Book, Mini Book

GSM/3G support in Mini Book would be nice.

Regards,

Martix

PS: I am Touch Book owner.
