Computex Taipei 2006: "Taiwan miracle" in the pocket

In the 15 th century Portuguese sailors discovered has not yet indicated on European maps island. Struck by his beauty, they are without much thought called it an excellent - Ilha Formosa. Later this small piece of land has undergone a series of historical vicissitudes, struggles and colonization, and then suddenly came the "miracle". And the island became known as "Tigrom. Each year, the "Tiger" with great pleasure that demonstrates all its advantages, in that they are going to watch and take pictures with audiences around the world. Taiwan's economy, and, respectively, and electronics manufacturing, stala to flourish since the early 60-xx's and soon reached rather serious proportions. With the level of Zaire and the Congo moved to the island a leading position in the world for a number of industries. Takeoff even got a special term - Taiwan's economic miracle, and the island, along with Hong Kong, South Korea and Singapore have a similar "services" referred to as "Asian tigers". Tiger never misses an opportunity pobryatsat armor and show the world their achievements. Since 1991 the perfect excuse for this was the exhibition of IT-products Computex, conducted in Taipei. Year by year, show increased its speed and range of exhibited products. In this year's exhibition, held in Taipei from the 6 th to June 10, raised a new record: 1312 companies exhibited their products at the 2907 show floor, and the number of visitors from abroad reached 30 thousand To read all news had, like last year, walking among the four huge pavilions filled to capacity, and among stands to navigate directories and maps.

The interior of one of the pavilions Computex 2006

This year special attention was paid to portable devices, mobile technologies and wireless communications. Almost all laptops made today in Taiwan, completed in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The same trend is observed for which we are interested portable devices. This is not surprising - in Taipei is well-developed Wi-Fi network with multiple access points: City Hall has long stated its intention to make the city one of the most "wireless" in the world. At Computex 2006 demonstrated the first samples of an ultra-portable PC (Ultra-Mobile PC, UMPC) Taiwan's production - as has already been released for sale in the U.S. and Japanese markets, and just being prepared for release. Joined the ranks of producers PDAs and smartphones. As in the past year, news provided veterans of the market: E-Ten, Asus, BenQ and others, but as always, HTC was not, however, the company's plans, which was announced recently in London, has changed for the better. If the corporation had declared that it would not distribute the products under its own brand, then convened in conjunction with Microsoft's press conference by HTC officially announced its own eponymous brand. So it is quite possible that next year the company finally take part in the exhibition. Attention to the category of PDAs, communicators and smartphones was also demonstrated on the stand Microsoft. Whereas in the past year, the company presented its platform mainly on the example of devices with Windows Embedded, putting a rather modest amount of PDA in a single "tank", at the Computex 2006 most of the stand it took Microsoft Pocket PCs and Smartphones, where each manufacturing company identified as at least one person to represent their new products. Trend towards further integration of functions into a single device: along with the complete set of modules for wireless communications more and more began to appear communicators with the function of GPS. However, in order.

UMPC: Struggles of Asian miniature

Despite the fact that the project Origami, under the name of which was hidden for a long time the concept of UMPC, was announced by Microsoft at the CeBIT Taiwan's Asus, South Korea's Samsung and China's Founder Group, the first on the markets have been an American model from the company eo Tablet Kiosk.As expected, the very model of a computer for the Americans developed a Taiwan-based Amtek System. As it turned out at the show, the same company is the manufacturer of another model - SmartCaddie, PBJ sold in Japan. The Company does not intend to limit the geographical spread of these countries. Thus, the French It'sLabel! has already started selling UMPC from Amtek System under its own brand, and soon in the Netherlands will go on sale UMPC Tulip. At the moment, the most expensive model is the French: If Americans can purchase eo priced at just $ 899, then the French will have to shell out for an "ultra-portable" pleasure 990 euros. The fair's sake, it should be noted that sells It'sLabel UMPC with-in GPS. For comparison: a model of Q1 from Samsung can be purchased for $ 1099. As we have told employees Amtek System, to their UMPC also expressed interest in certain Russian company, so it is likely that the ultra-mobile PCs and will soon appear on the market.

According to his statement, the new mobile chipset company will further reduce the size of UMPC and reduce its energy consumption. Despite all the achievements of VIA Technologies, Asustek Computer is not going to change at Intel.
