Wibrain B1 UMPC: super connectivity comes with plain looks

Wibrain's business-centric B1 is an ultra mobile PC which has every wireless connection capability you could dream of.

Wibrain unveiled a model of its ultra mobile PC, the business-centric B1. Going by the specs, it’s a steal deal at a $650 price tag.

See what all you get: Bluetooth connectivity, a camera, GSM/GPRS/EDGE, 4.8" touch screen LCD and customizable CPU (1GHz, 1.2Ghz or 1.6Ghz), memory (512MB or 1GB) and HDD (30/60/80GB). Other features include Qwerty keyboard, scroll wheel, buttons for page (up/down) and mouse (left/right) and hold key.














Sounds interesting, except that when it comes to style there’s nothing much to write about. The design looks too outdated by today’s standards and so, if you are among those flaunting a latest acquisition, this may not be the one for you. If utility is what you look at, go for it.

The B1 is to hit the Korea market in mid-October.

    I have been looking over the comments on all the sights and was kind of annoyed by the fact that no one has looked at the unit and just talking about the style. I had a so called "stylish" ASUS UMPC and I lost about $200 when i re-sold it after having so much trouble with lack of performance power. I even increased the RAM but no help. I was lucky to get this B1 unit before the launch in korea, I have been using it for about 2 weeks and the functions are great, The speed of the unit was almost like my regular notebook PC, I travel alot around the world and was looking for a fast PC. I ran across this unit in korea, and found that the user interface like the keyboard and the dual touchpad and touchscreen was one of the greatest ideas seen so far. I didn’t have to lay it down to use it. i could do everything while holding it. The unit had great power. I think this one is a keeper.
    I also heard that they are changing the color too.
