Where In The World Is Carlo Guerrero?
Posted by marlof in "ARTICLE" @ 04:00 AM
Our friendly neighbourhood Windows Mobile specialist / photographer Carlo Guerrero has been travelling, and lucky for us he did bring a camera. First of all Carlo went to an exhibit in Hong Kong, where he didn't find any Windows Mobile devices but did see several nifty gadgets including two nice Windows CE.net mobile devices in the HPC and Tablet form factor. Next Carlo travelled to China, where he spent some time on the China High-Tech Fair featuring all kinds of technology, among which mobile devices. On the second day there Carlo saw several Windows Mobile devices we've reported on before (including the Motorola MPx 220 and MPx and BenQ P50 [hooray!]), but also three new Phone Editions by Lenovo.
The Lenovo AT960 (above) features a swivelling camera, and a lock slider for the buttons. The Lenovo AT560 (below) looks a bit like a large smartphone, but in fact is a Phone Edition. The screen can be flipped so the device can be used in tablet mode as well, which I think is a nice concept. I would be a bit worried about the size of such a device though, knowing the depth of certain flip phones which are smaller in size. Anyhow, there's many more pictures of different devices in Carlo's stories, so if you're interested in learning what is hot and new in Hong Kong and China go read them on PPCW.net.
