It looks like the eeePC is really driving interest in the UMPC form factor. This video from MoDaCo shows Paul unboxing the UBiQUiO 711 UMPC which is based on the AMtek T770. At the beginning of the video he says that he's got an eeePC and wants something with more power and a hard drive so he is going to try out this UMPC from UBiQUiO. Check it out and see if you think it could be a good alternative. | | Click to Comment | Comments [ 0 ] |

JK on the Run has started a new segment called Video Geek Sessions and their first one features the Wibrain B1. The cool thing about the Video Geek Sessions is that they use Picture-in-Picture to get both Kevin and James on the screen at the same time and go through the review of the Wibrain. It's a really fun format and I think James and Kevin really get along well, even on camera. There was a bit of confusion in the video however as to the pronunciation of the word Wibrain: Kevin called it the Wee Brain and James called it the Why Brain, which one do you think it is? | | Click to Comment | Comments [ 3 ] |

Remember the motion sensing coffee table? Well, the DIY geniuses over at Evil Mad Scientist have come up with another cool trick. This time it's a BristleBot, which is a type of VibroBot. I can't wait till these bots get a little bit smarter. When are we going to see super smart robots with UMPCs for brains? I've seen a few designs floating around the internet, but have yet to see a DIY version made. Anyone up to the challenge? I've got a few UMPCs laying around that I wouldn't mind donating to a good DIY robot guru. | | Click to Comment | Comments [ 0 ] |

JKK has got his hands on the Wibrain B1H and he gives it a good going over. I keep forgetting that this is the first VIA based UMPC to have a native 1024x600 resolution, which is a pretty big deal. JKK remarks that the Wibrain is really small and I think that it's definitely smaller than it looks. Another feature that JKK likes is the split thumboard, he says it's easier to use than the Everun and the N810. This review is pretty in-depth, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy. | | Click to Comment | Comments [ 0 ] |
