I don't know who Faizon Love is, but he's getting down with a gPC from Everex that's running the gOS I wrote about earlier this week, the same gOS that's running on the CloudBook. It's really picking up a lot of momentum. It may very well be the perfect storm: Great OS meets great UMPC meets great price point. Give gOS a try at thinkgos.com

I don't know how I missed this video, but it's nice to check out how the MTube designers are envisioning the MTube being used. It's incredible to think about how this little PC is going to change the way we think about handheld devices. Sure you've got the iPhone that's really shaken up the phone world, but this one is going to take it a step further. A real x86 processor, a tiny handheld form factor, and wireless connectivity.

Think about it, develop your apps directly on the platform their designed to run on. Right now my imagination is running wild thinking about all the cool things I can do with a computer that fits in my hand. At first I was thinking "MTube Beowulf cluster" but the practical nerd inside of me says location-based webserver. Hang one of these up in your store and you've got a security camera, doubling as a way for customers to see what's going on in your store. Hang one in your nursery and check on your baby from your MTube while you're at the store. If the Wimax infrastructure really takes off we're going to start to see these devices everywhere wireless broadcasting live video feeds from every corner of the globe.

We're looking at a massive proliferation of live video feeds since we've basically solved the problem of packaging all the necessary functionality into one tiny, low power, and consumer friendly package. I can't wait for production to start on these, I'm going to get 10 of them and put them all over the place: one at home so I can check on my cat, one at the office so I know who's there, one at the front door of my office building so I can see the weather and the traffic right outside, and one with me so I can take a look at all of these feeds.

What if I gave you 10 MTubes to use as you please, how would you use your MTubes?

Everex surprised a lot of people last month when the gOS running gPC for just $199 sold out at WalMart. They have surprised a few more people when they announced the CloudBook to go head to head with the eeePC at $399. In this video interview with John Lin from Everex he discusses the history of Everex as a company and their focus for 2008, on open source PC platforms based on VIA processors and the gOS.

I don't know how many of you watch Epic Fu, but I love Zadi's personality and her show always covers some cool stuff. One of the regular segments on the show is the Fu of the Week where they highlight something that they really like. Guess what this weeks Fu of the Week is? That's right, gOS, the operating system for the CloudBook and the gPC from Everex. It gets the nod because it's designed to run on any kind of hardware and it's primary applications are web-based. It's pretty exciting for me to see something related to our hardware on Epic Fu. Have a look!

A while ago I shared a quick hands on look at the MTube, and now the MTube has been spotted on US soil. At CES the MTube was found at the Lunch @ Piero's event running three different live demos. The first demo is a DVB-T demo, basically watching TV on the 4" device. The second using wireless peripherals, like a LCD display to show videos and pictures. The third live demo was watching YouTube videos over a WiMax connection. Looking at the setup, you can see that the MTube has a lot of promise and it even sounds like it will be available in the second quarter of this year. I've got more videos to put up, stay tuned.
