Yesterday we showed you an Android powered MID that looked shockingly like something Apple’s hardware designers would think up even though we knew the guys in Cupertino had nothing to do with it. At the time it was spotted, the entire Internet was confused as to what the device actually was.

Today, however, it looks like the internet may have figured out what the device actually is; the MID-560 from SMiT which we’ve included a render of, above. While it’s not confirmed the above device is the same as the one we saw yesterday but it’s 800 x 480 resolution, 533/667 MHz processor, 8GB of internal storage and microSD card still make it a highly sought after device. We’ll just have to wait until live shots of the MID-560 are released so we can compare the two.

Unfortunately, the chances of it ever hitting the market outside of China remains slim to none.

Slashgear has recently put up a video giving the breakdown, and walkthrough of Samsung’s forthcoming SWD-M100 Mobile Internet Device.

We don’t know much about the SWD-M100 other than it runs Windows Mobile 6.1, features an Opera browser, has an accelerometer, and 2-cameras; a 3MP one on the back and a 0.3MP on the front. There is also a microSD memeory card slot for memory expansion and a port for TV output.

Sounds, and looks, cool. I remember when UMPC’s first came out and they were all the rage, oh how the times have changed.
