Mobinnova elan

The Computex 2009 show in Taipei is the place where content providers, carriers and consumers get their first look at what may be a whole new class of high performance communication devices. The élan is first in Mobinnova’s product line of ultra-portable computing devices powered by the NVIDIA Tegra Computer-on-a-Chip.

The 2 lb. élan is similar to a netbook in that it’s compact, has a keyboard, and offers simple access to the Internet. Even so, that’s where the similarities end. The élan powers up straightaway, connects directly to a 3G wireless network, offers many hours of continuous use, full page web browsing, and presents graphics performance never experienced before on a mobile computing device. All of this is packaged in Mobinnova’s stylishly slim design.

The phone in the picture here is the ICE, the new Windows Mobile phone made by Mobinnova for itself. It’s not a phone made by Mobinnova for Sony Ericsson but it’s a Mobinnova made for Mobinnova.

• Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 professional
