The LonMID M100 – Not Quite Netbook, Not Quite Phone

The latest device released in the name of confusing the hell out of you is the LonMID M100, which isn’t a mobile phone but isn’t quite a netbook either.

Featuring an 800MHz Atom Z500 processor, the Intel Poulsbo chipset, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 4GB of SSD storage, a 4.8-inch 800×480 display, and a miniscule QWERTY keypad, the LonMID M100 packs a punch for its size. On the other hand, the device has an alphanumeric keypad on the back, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi – making nus think it could be a phone.

Regardless, we can’t get too frenzied about it because the MD100 is just a prototype so far. We’ll keep looking out for news of a planned release, but in the mean time all we can do is wait.
