OQO Arrives at Intel Atom Party, Better Late than Never

oqoI brought my Inbox to zero over the weekend, but the barrage of CES pitches has me buried again. Rob Bushway is doing better than I am at managing the endless e-mails because he’s actually reading some. He notes that the Digital Experience lineup shows OQO will be in attendance at the mini-show on January 7th. We’ll be there at the Mirage to check it all out, but like Rob, we’ll be swinging by the OQO booth to see their Model 2+.

I’ve been wondering how long it would take for OQO to rework their handheld computer with the Intel Atom chipset. Now we know because the Digital Experience e-mail tells us that there’s a 1.86GHz Intel Atom under the hood of the revamped device. There’s also up to 2GB of RAM and a touchscreen, which I’m assuming will complement the active digitizer but we’ll have to wait and see. Even more interesting to me is the OLED display, which I suspect will add more battery life savings. Aside from hardware specifications, I wonder how the Model 2+ will come in on pricing. Only a week to wait and find out!
