WORLD EXCLUSIVE PICTURES |We've seen it all in depth and now you can too... Intel's Red Flag Linux powered mobile internet devices.
Intel will shortly announce that its new Mobile Internet Devices will be powered by Red Flag Linux. After you've looked at the gallery, read our full report.
 Redflag running on a mobile internet device: it's hard to see in a still pic, but the user interface is slick, with very smooth animation |
 An ASUS UMPC with Redflag on it |
 The main Red Flag UI: notice a similarity with any other popular new internet-enabled device? |
 The Red Flag main menu: with extra shortcuts shown |
 Google Maps with GPS: we were standing somewhere there in the middle |
 Red Flag Document Writer: if your MID or UMPC has a built in keyboard you don't have to have the on-screen keyboard |
 Red Flag email: just like a chocolate milkshake only emaily |
 Redflag IM: based on our favourite multi-protocol IM, GAIM (or is that Pidgin?) |
 Red Flag movie player: we asked what formats it supported and got a roundabout answer involving two core playback engines, multiple CODECs, and well, we're still not exactly sure, but hey -- it's Linux, right, and that can play just about everything. |
 Red Flag RSS reader: when you simply can't wait to get a load of tech news while on the loo |
 Red Flag PDF reader: not much to say here, move along... (works well though) |
 Red Flag Image Viewer: kookaburra sits in a tall gum tree... merry merry king of the UMPC is he... |
 Red Flag Calendar: Just like Outlook only Linuxy |
 Red Flag calculator: subtract the cost of Windows from your UMPC and you get pi... amazing |
 Red Flag Game: what would a mobile device be without a time wasting diversion for those in the queue / waiting for an OS to reinstall moments |
 The Red Flag team: the guys that made it happen, from left to right, Xiaojing Xu, Bohui Pan, Pengcheng Zou, Baisheng Wang, Jianzhong Huang, Bo Cheng, Xu Wang |
