Looking quite a bit like an i-mate Ultimate 9502 that’s eaten all the pies, MIU have high hopes for their Hybrid Dual Portable Computer (HDPC).  They’ve taken convergence to its inevitable, vaguely ridiculous conclusion and packed the HDPC with a 1GHz VIA C7M ULV CPU, 4GB of RAM, 60GB hard-drive (or 4GB SSD), WiFi, Bluetooth and some sort of cellar connectivity, together with dual-booting OS (Windows XP and either Win CE 5.0 or Linux Qplus).

 Everything is served up via the pivoting 800 x 480 4-inch touchscreen and more buttons (as well as a mouse controller) than you could expect even from dipping the HDPC into glue and dropping it into a button factory.  MIU are suggesting it could act as car PC, GPS navigation device, cellphone, PMP, UMPC alternative, electronic dictionary, VoIP device, PSP rival, digital camera, voice recorder or mobile TV handset (with an optional DMB receiver).  It measures in at 163 x 67 x 24.5mm and will supposedly be on sale, in Korea at least, come July, priced at 500,000KRW ($498).
