It’s been a while since we heard of ITG’s xpPhone in fact, the last we heard of it was back at Computex. Well, the device seems to have graduated from the drawing board and is now dangerously close to hitting Vodafone, Orange and AT&T.

As you can see, the device packs quite a punch with its 4.8-inch touchscreen display, video conferencing and 3G compatibility. One major thing to make note of is the fact that its primary operating system is Microsoft’s beloved Windows XP.

Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) ITG has yet to mention a price so when you actually go to pre-order the xpPhone, you won’t have to pay anything.

Telegent Systems goes up a notch in its business services as they are scheduled to demo their first netbook and all-in-one PC carrying their marquee free-to-air TV. The products are scheduled to be unveiled at Computex in Taiwan, giving onlookers a first class glimpse on the latest technological offering using the said technology.

By embedding the hybrid TV feature, Topstar’s netbook and all-in-one PC designs improve PC TV usability and feature access while enabling the broadest coverage across both digital and analog broadcast networks. Topstar’s 18″ all-in-one PC is designed from inception for hybrid TV, with the entire system optimized to deliver industry-leading TV performance.

“The high performance, low power and small size of Telegent’s PC TV technology has for the first time enabled us to reliably embed high quality hybrid TV in our designs, simplifying the addition of this desirable but technologically complex feature,” said Mr. Xiaobo Wu, chief executive officer of Topstar. “This opens up new opportunities for Topstar to leverage the embedded TV feature to differentiate our product offerings and expand our reach into overseas markets.”

Remember that Eee Keyboard which Asus has presented a while ago? Well that tiny computer will be available in June so get ready to buy it. I’d still get a laptop instead of a Eee Keyboard but such a devices could come in really handy around the house or even at the office. Asus might launch it officially at Computex during the first week of June.

Intel should get ready for some serious competition in the netbook industry. It looks like NVIDIA has confirmed that the first Ion-based netbooks will be unveiled in June at the Computex trade. Then the very first models available will be shipped as early as July. We’re curious to see who’s going to be the first to develop these new Ion-based netbooks but that’s still a mystery. Key players from the netbook business are going to be involved but we can’t name any names yet. Since Acer has launched its first Ion-based nettop, the AspireRevo, we can only assume that the company is secretly working on Ion netbooks too.

Seems like ASUS rocked at the Computex 2008. Besides cool devices like the Handwriting Tablet, ASUS exhibited many other interesting products. Asus ZX1 Lamborghini Phone is one of the elegant phones in ASUS’s product portfolio at Computex. It derives its name from the famous sports car Automobili Lamborghini for sharing some features with the car. It has a masculine cut and sturdy exterior. This striking cell phone is made from carbon fiber and high grade stainless steel. This touch screen phone is truly made for “Elite Men”.
