Samsung unveils WiMAX UMPC phone

Is it a phone or a Ultra Mobile Personal Computer? According to Samsung, it's a little bit of both. It runs Windows XP with a 1GHz processor, 256MB of RAM, and a 30GB hard drive. It also has built in CDMA EV-DO network connectivity, meaning it will be WiMAX compatible. It also has a cute folding keyboard, a 5 inch screen, bluetooth connectivity, and a 1.3 megapixel camera mounted as a webcam. When folded, the device measures 14.3 x 9.2 x 3cm. It will ship with a 2,980mAh battery, but Samsung also plans to offer a longer lasting 7,200mAh battery as an upgrade. The device will be available in Korea in mid 2007.
