The World's Smallest Computer!

In a world full of giant skyscrapers, gigantic mobile phones (e.g. the Samsung Galaxy Tab) and massive 4WD vehicles, it's nice to unwind with some smaller stuff, such as the iPod Shuffle Nano, which you can fully grasp within your hand, or the 1969 Peel P-50 car, which is the world's smallest production car.

But who will expect that someone will make....the world's smallest computer???

This video shows e-blogger Marc Saltzman talking about the Dynamism UMID mBook M1, which is the world's smallest computer.



Dynamism refused to call their product a "smartphone," and rather opted to call their product as a "computer." Their reason is because the UMID mBook M1's operating system is a full version of WINDOWS XP, not WINDOWS MOBILE. The mBook comes with a full functioning USB adapter, an ability to access Wi-Fi (like most laptops), and also the ability to work as a computer with Windows XP or as a mobile phone with a SIM card.

Here are the specifications for the world's smallest computer:

  • 1.3Ghz Z520 Atom CPU, 512MB of RAM
  • 8GB SSD Drive
  • 1024×600 Touch Display
  • 158 x 94.1 x 18.6mm, 315g
Can you believe that? A freakin' 315 g is the weight of the mBook. Heck, even my Toshiba laptop, at 2 kg, is more heavier than the mBook! This thing could fit an average jeans pocket with ease! It's almost as large as a standard Rolex wristwatch!






You might think that the world's smallest computer is one of the greatest invention of man. Well, YOU'RE WRONG! Having an mBook is a complete misery! And here's why:


1. The small keyboard.
2. Try plugging a standard sized USB flash disk into the mBook!
3. The stylus provided with the mBook...worst stylus that has ever been invented. Worse than the Nintendo   DS stylus!
4. The applications aren't adjusted to the mBook's small size. In a standard computer, you'll finish up scrolling Max Power's Blog in around a few seconds. In the mBook....half an hour just to scroll down the pages.

But the webcam....one of the best ones ever invented by man. It's pure HD, and it's very good to be used with Skype!

Overall, the mBook, the world's smallest computer, is a nice little devil. Despite it's disadvantages, it's small size didn't make anyone think twice when buying the mBook, which cost a monstrous $599. It's the perfect computer to be brought anywhere, anytime, and any moment.

Still didn't believe that the mBook is a computer? This will convince you...

We're running on WINDOWS XP!
