Gigabyte’s 3G-Capable MID M528 Coming Out On Sept 17 For US$689

A release date and price has been set for UMPC contender Gigabyte’s MID M528, a diminutive portable computer with a slide out keyboard, according to the folks over at UMPC Portal. A product page on Gigabyte’s site put the cost at US$689 and availability on Sept. 17. The page then disappeared, but not before intrepid internet surfers could get a nice screen grab.


The M528 contains a 4.8 inch screen with a 800 x 480 pixel resolution, a 800 Mhz Intel Atom, 512 MB RAM, roughly 4GB of storage space, and an 11 hour battery in a case that weighs about three quarters of a pound. It also boasts 3G, which makes it a possible replacement for the Nokia N810 if you think 3G’s worth paying over double for. [UMPC Portal]
