Kojinsha’s New E8 Is Tablet Competitor for EEE PC

10:18PM February 21, 2008 | Gizmodo US Edition

Clearly aiming for the same market as the EEE PC, Kojinsha’s new E8 UMPC has the added bonus of being a touchscreen tablet. It does, however, beat me how the Korean-made E8 is being labelled by some as a UMPC—it looks more like a sub-notebook to me.


The E8 runs Windows XP, has an AMD Geode LX800 CPU under the hood along with a 40GB hard drive, and its seven inch screen has 1024 x 600-pixel resolution. It’s also got stereo speakers, a single USB port, memory card slot (we don’t know what sort) and apparently 3.5 hours of battery life. Sounding like quite a competitor for the little Asus, the E8 is available Februrary 29th for about US$600. [Aving.net]
