[FUD] VIA shows new form factor: Mobile-ITX
Quote:
VIA Technologies has shown some quite interesting stuff this year and it's quite a shame that we haven't seen many of those concepts in retail, but once again managed to stun us with its announcement of the new Mobile-ITX form factor. The new form factor is 50 percent smaller than Pico-ITX and it basically fits in the palm of your hand, so this is something that will certainly have a bright future in niche markets. |

It probably had a daughter board for I/O.

Probably to contrast the size. Hands aren't a very good standard measure of length, and neither is a foot for that matter. If that board were in my hands, it would look tiny.

Yeah, but rings size is directly proportional to hand size....

I didn't even think about the ring till Duckie said something

Either way, I wonder if this is what the XPhone is running board wise? As it's supposed to have an AMD CPU, but Geode is all but dead. Though, throw a Athlon II Neo + RS785 could fit on something this small.

Make the impossible possible houdini!

That's cool and all, but it's an ARM processor, and won't run x86.
