Meet OQO - the Ultra Personal Computer

OQO Ultra Personal Computer

This device is so new, powerful and handy, OQO (Brand Directory: OQO), the company producing it, needed to create a new name. Not PDA, not MDA, not PocketPC, no. It’s called UPC as in “Ultra Personal Computer”

I’m yet to find a price but as I read from the specs this UPC should be pretty handy, especially for people like me always on-the-go.
It’s got (nearly) everything you need:

- WLAN
- USB/Bluetooth Connectivity
- 1 GHz
- 5″ screen with 800×480 resolution
- just 14 ounces

OQO has just received 20 million dollar of funding from Motorola which will be used for distribution, marketing and speeding up the development of upcoming devices, says CEO Jory Bell.

VW New Beetle Ad

There’s a VW Beetle ad reminding me of the style Absolut (Link: Brand Directory) uses in their ads, for example Absolut Peak: displaying real-life objects and tweaking them till they resemble the product.

Can you find the beetle?

iMac Chocolate Cigarettes

iMac Chocolate Cigarettes

Found by a boing-boing reader: “On her way back from Day of the Dead in Chiapas, my wife picked up this iMac pack of chocolate cigarettes in the Mexico City airport.”

I remember chocolate cigarettes from my childhood and they weren’t very exciting. The chocolate tasted bad, the colors weren’t appealing and nobody actually thought I was cool when “smoking”. Only a couple of kids bought them.

Today companies still produce chocolate cigarettes, but why are they using an old iMac for the packaging?
Maybe because the apple brand is just as addictive as smoking.
