COMPUTEX 2007:微軟




這次微軟的攤位仍然專注在智慧型手機,雖然有看到一台 Toshiba HD DVD 播放器和 OKWAP 的 WiFi 數位相框(看起來支援 sideshow)。因此和去年一樣,微軟把所有支援 Windows 的廠商集結起來,讓我們一次看盡全部的智慧型手機以及以 Windows CE 為基礎發展的產品。擊點下面圖庫看微軟攤位的智慧型手機圖片(圖多),內文中則有手機的特色描述,其中包括我們請 GSmart 的產品經理為我們專門介紹的 GSmart t600 可播放數位電視的手機:

While there is a Toshiba HD DVD player and an OKWAP Wifi picture frame dotting the scene (it seems to be there because it supports sideshow), this year's Microsoft booth is basically all about WinMo 6 smartphones. Some of the more interesting ones are introduced in detail after the break, while the rest of the WinMo touting bunch sits ready to be clicked in the gallery:





GSmart t600 最大的特色在於可播放 DVB-T 數位電視和 DVB-H(這方面公視已經測試一陣子,中環本說去年秋季就要推出,不過目前仍然沒看到服務現身),播放數位電視續航力為 2 個小時,所以為了該服務買 GSmart t600 的朋友一定要多帶幾顆電池。另外 GSmart t600 還有個相當有趣的特色,播放數位電視的天線拔起來就是觸控筆,相當有特色,GSmart t600 售價約新台幣 23,000 元,下星期舖貨上架。

The GSmart t600 by Gigabyte (yeah, THAT gigabyte) is ready for prime time next week, and has DVB-T and DVB-H capabilities built in. However, the battery lasts only 2hrs, which means you might need a few spares to finish a game of baseball. One special thing about this handset is that the antenna doubles as the stylus, which means losing your stylus in now a MUCH more serious problem then ever before. Expected price $700.


HD-A20 中階 HD DVD 播放器,今年 CES 大展已經介紹過。

Boring. Skip!


夏新 Amoi E78,標準黑莓機型手機。最有趣的地方是,規格表上寫 WiFi Coming soon...黑莓機市場在本地起不來很重要一個原因在於 GPRS 太慢、Wifi 訊號不好找,希望 3G 是救世主。E78 不是 3G 手機。

The Amoi E78, a qwerty celly with EDGE / GSM / GPRS (No 3G!) and WiFi "coming soon". It better come REAL soon...



AMoi E860 大家就想像成 Dopod 818 pro 的皮革版加上 GPS,無其他特別的地方。

比起搭載 Windows TPC 的 UMPC,我們更加樂見如上圖 COMPAL 所製造的 MID 產品,以 Windows CE 為開發基礎,讓多媒體、網路通訊、文書處理、衛星導航功能都可發揮,補足手機小螢幕小體積的不足,加上 HSDPA 傳輸,價格壓在 700 美元以下,既滿足消費者的慾望還降低荷包的壓力,不是兩全其美嗎?Mio C720t 就是類這樣的產品,只是以 GPS 導航儀的姿態現身。

This COMPAL is based on Windows CE instead of Windows XP / Vista, bringing it somewhere between a cellphone and an UMPC, while at the same time pushing the price below $700. Sounds good, eh?


OKWAP 類黑莓機產品。

OKWAP K869 應該是該公司立足智慧型產品的重要里程碑,記得大家一致稱讚但小小惋惜的 OKWAP S868 嗎?K869 把螢幕加大到 2.8 吋、300 萬像素、WM6、BT 2.0、WiFi 802.11b/g、usb 2.0 client FS 以及最棒的 HSDPA加上類似 iPod 觸摸式滾輪。只要夠穩定、價格夠中道,是完成度相當好的產品。

The OKWAP K869 will probably be the phone to establish OKWAP firmly in the smartphone scene, as well as (hopefully) bring the company under engadget mobile's radar. The specs: 2.8" QVGA touchscreen, 3mp camera,WinMo 6, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi 802.11 b/g, quad-band / HSDPA, AGPS, and an Intel PXA270 520 MHz processor, all in a 17.5mm thick package. The numeric keypad also acts as a scroll wheel, somewhat like an iPod.


HTC S710 是 HTC 勉強可以敘述的產品,智慧型手機最弱的地方在於輸入辛苦,因此可以滑出 QWERTY 鍵盤。但我們真的想看的是 ELF 啊,沒有 ELF 的 HTC,我們一點胃口都沒有。

The HTC S710 (a.k.a. Vox). Oh well, who cares? I mean this is the third (or second) largest computer trade show in the world, and HTC, a Taiwanese company, doesn't even care to show us an ELF? Sorry HTC, you're not getting any coverage from Engadget Chinese here.
