One look at this and you would probably think a) Its fake b) part of suitcase nuke prop from 24, well it's neither, but it is real. AIS ultra rugged PDA has a 3.7" QVGA touch screen, runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 and has bluetooth, wifi, 3G and GPS all built in! The Marvell processor is quite well protected in this sturdy rubberized casing. (My Photoshopping skills are awesome) Via Engadget

WooHoo! The Nexus One (and Android in general) will be getting updates that will support Flash 10.1. What does does this mean, you can stream You Tube or any of those other 'sites' with video flash streaming right in your phone. The video shows that currently Flash 10.1 is using software and not hardware to render videos, hence why the video plays clippy, but this should change once they get hardware rendering going.

Yesterday i put up a post about earphones which are being developed by Japans NTT DoCoMo that can read eye movements and translate them into a sort of remote control function. Well today we found a video of it in use Pretty amazing. Via Ubergizmo

This gives a entire new meaning to blind navigation. Japans DoCoMo has a new method for how you can control your MP3 player with just your eyes with the use of a pair of earphones. The entire basis for these earphones are their ability to detect ectrooculograms that your brain sends out in response to your eye movement. So moving your eyes left can mean jump to the next song, move them up and the volume can go up. This is a great idea, control your media player with your eyes, but i wonder how the earphones will distinguish between your eyes just moving in response to seeing something and eye movement in order to change a song.

Want to use Android and WM on the same phone, now you can, the good people at XDA Developers forum have come up with a easy to run program that will make your Windows Mobile phone dual boot with Android. Now the big questions is, will this work on any of the cheap Chinese WM phones that are out there, if you do try this on a China phone, please let us know if it works on our forums.

Taiwans, Foxconn, the same company that makes the iPhone for Apple, is releasing a budget Android tablet aimed at the China market and priced for $100 called the iWonder. Ubergizmo got their hands on one unit at MWC, they report the Android tablet will have a 800x480 resolution screen and my own guess from the above image is that it will have a 7" to 8" screen. The iWonder will also have a Maxwell based processor, the same guys who make a lot of processors for phones. I find it interesting that the makers of the iPad will also be making an Android tablet for the China market. Via Ubergizmo Discuss on our forums

It seems we are coming closer and closer to the launch of the RAmos W7 Android PMP, new pictures have been released of the custom music, video and ebook apps as well as updates on the stability of the Android port to the RK2808 processor. The pictures do show the new ebook and music app UI, both of which look very similar to what we see on normal Rockchip based PMP's. Evidently Rockchip have ported over part of their normal player interface as standalone apps. I guess this is a good thing as Androids own media player is in someway lacking in features and no doubt the Rockchip video player will be able to support better video playback and many more video formats than what the standard android video player provides. It also seems that net connectivity is now stable and that the
