CuWIN3500 is a Windows CE based Rugged Embedded Controller!

Comfile Technology has launched their new Touchscreen PLC/embedded computer based on Windows CE called CuWIN3500.
The CuWIN3500 is based on an ARM9 32bit 266Mhz processor with a 7-inch 800×480 pixel touchscreen display pad.
On top of that, the CuWIN3500 supports up to 2GB of SD cards, 64MB of RAM, 64MB of NAND Flash, 1MB of NOR flash, internal mono speakers, and also an option to hook up your stereo headphones.
The whole thing can be programmed via a .NET framework and you can also use Visual Basic to program.
What does it do?
Well, it’s for industrial developers and hobbyists who want a fast color touchscreen module. You can hook up motors, sensors, etc…etc… It’s like a touchscreen version of Arduino or Basic Stamp basically. Get the idea???
I just got a free sample here so I might do a video review and give it out as a contest but in the meanwhile, this little touchscreen device goes for $599.00.
If there’s enough requests, I will hold a contest for the unit I got in couple weeks. (Leave a comment if you want one!)

Nokia 8800 Arte - For Show and no Go!

Well, I have to tell you the truth now. The truth? I did get to test all the Nokia 8800 series at the Nokia booth couple weeks ago at Web 2.0 Expo 2008.
The reason why I didn’t post my pics or videos is partly I didn’t have time to and also because the web browsers on the new Nokia are so horrible. They are not even recommended for any kind of web browsing as most sites will break.
However, I did find Nokia E90 had a great browser. Nokia needs to put that browser on their new phones.
I think all cellphone manufacturers should at least have a phone that lives up to the iPhone standards.
iPhone’s Safari supports Javascript, AJAX, and CSS among many other things Windows Mobile and Opera Mobile doesn’t support.
Now, if we can just get some WiMax to come through, that’d make perfect combo.
My suggestion? If you don’t care about the internet browsing capability, the Nokia looks great and you can get one but for me, it’s really “for show and no go” if the browser isn’t up to iPhone standards.
