Kohjinsha's cranked out some interesting convertible UMPCs, but the new SX-series pushes the definition about as far as it can go with its chunky looks and packed feature set. You're looking at an 8.9-inch convertible wide-screen LCD, running Windows Vista Home Premium. on a 1.33GHz Atom processor, 1GB of RAM, a 60GB drive, built-in dual-layer DVD drive, WiFi, Ethernet, dual cameras, ExpressCard/34 slot, VGA out, 1segment TV tuner, card reader, and 2 USB ports, with a 4.2-hour battery life, all in a 2.7-pound unit about an inch thick. Price $1,000 to $1240 depending on options.

It's a small form factor notebook, Dell Mini Inspiron, just like the Asus Eee and the HP 2133. It's a low-cost notebook meant for developing countries. Maybe it's Atom-powered. There are 3 USB ports, a card reader, VGA out, Ethernet, and that red candy shell. I couldn't tell how big the screen was before it was tucked away into a black sleeve and ushered from the building, but it's small.

"Hello Michael, where do you want to go today?" The Knight Rider-themed GPS unit has voice prompts recorded by the one-and-only William Daniels, the original voice of KITT when powered up. The LCD display is also flanked by a series of red LEDs reminiscent of KITT's nose-mounted lights. Once the unit is available for sale, about $270 is all it'll take to get KITT in your KARR.

Word on the street is that Garmin's upcoming Nuvifone will actually be manufactured by ASUS. According to "industry sources" the two companies have been working on the device for the past two years. The sources further claim that the Nuvifone will be the first in a series handsets, with plans to roll out new models through 2010. Reporting that the interface was snappy, the screen is nice and big, and the UI appears to be very GPS-centric. They tried the QWERTY keypad which is "spacious enough" and uses an auto-complete dictionary. The main interface presents a row of icons for calling, searching, and mapping, and finger swipes stream them across the screen. Included apps, at least in this model, were SMS, Google Search, email, and media player.

The new crew from Sony Ericsson is the F305, which isn't exactly feature-packed, boasting of mere EDGE speeds, a Memory Stick Micro slot, a 2-inch 176 x 220 display and some music playback features. What sets it apart is a built-in accelerometer for motion controlled games. The game-oriented face buttons are also a perk, but we hope this thing has enough processing power to handle something actually entertaining. The S302 Snapshot is camera-oriented, with a 2 megapixel fixed focus camera, a flash, and PhotoFix software. You can also shoot video, with 20MB of built-in storage, and Memory Stick Micro expansion. Both phones come with A2DP and will be announced on the 17th.

Chinese company Cking has gone ahead and built what may be the first production phone with a projector built in.It's a chunky candybar with the picoprojector beneath a lens on the top end. Apparently it's a 640 x 480 resolution projector with manual focus, a picture size up to 30-inches and the battery can give it about two hours of projection time. The LED light source must generate fair whack of heat, since the phone is punched full of holes at the projector end, presumably so that it doesn't collapse into a molten heap of parts.
