At the end of October we mentioned the Kohjunsha Dual-Screen netbook that was captured on video. We now hear that the dual-screen device is actually on sale.

A couple of weeks back we mentioned a new proof-of-concept device from Stantum PC that showed promise. Netbooked managed to get some hands-on time with the multi-touch slate to see how well it works.
The Stantum PC is actually a modified Dell Mini 10 netbook that's had a few things taken out and a multi-touch screen added that is capable of detecting inputs from 10 fingers. The video (after the jump) shows a very responsive slate that actually shows quite a lot of promise. The multi-touch screen is actually resistive rather than capacitive which was a surprise. By using resistive it doesn't limit you to just fingers as shown in the video. [click to continue…]
A user has managed to get Google Chrome OS running on his ASUS Eee T91 MT netbook tablet. We assume he has used the USB install option to get it running.
The video below is fairly self explanatory. You can see various websites being loaded on the OS along with the touchscreen features being utilised. There is one thing to point out though in that the calibration is obviously not set right, but does work to a certain extent. [click to continue…]

The iXP3 Internet Messaging Clock is a gadget you can put on your office desk. It features a swinging arm that has red LED's on it. When waved back and forth fast, it gives the illusion of floating text in the air which is used to display messages.
A port in the back allows you to connect it to a router. The port is a standard RJ45 socket that allows Ethernet to be run direct from the router to the clock and make it internet connected.
Once connected to your router you simply register the device online and messages sent to the service are displayed floating in mid air on the clock. [click to continue…]
