OQO Model 03 UMPC Released

On 22 July 2009, OQO has confirmed they are closing their doors, and that model 2 + has never been an official release date. A few months after the model is 2 + on eBay, and went with an extravagant price tag of $ 5100. There were still days to go to this auction too, so it could sell more. But that was the end of it.

Thank you member UMPC Portal, but he happened to be on the official Chinese website OQO and low and behold, there was a UMPC there looking at them. With a little digging, and much of the translation, which is actually known Model03 UMPC, and yes, apparently there. However, it is not a release date. Although there is much to watch, with the technical specifications included.?

The Model 03 will pack in Windows 7, a 2GHz Intel Atom Z550 processor, and a 4.8-inch LCD touchscreen. There’s also a 128GB SSD tucked away inside. The display is also multitouch enabled, which is great news. There’s also that slide-out full QWERTY keyboard. Unfortunately, there isn’t much else to go on here. What’s been figured out so far, is that while the US-based arm of OQO closed their doors, it looks like the Chinese arm went into hibernation, and it is now just coming out of hiding. Now, something else to take away is the price listed in that spec sheet. At 31,888 yuan, that’s about $4,700. So, obviously the Model 03 is still meant for those who really, really love UMPCs. Anyone out there intested? [via slashgear]
