UMPC Or The Ultra Mobile PC

Recently came across this again with quite a force. While working with the deal site work I have been seeing the reference to ultra mobile machines quite often, though of a particular model from Asus. But that did clearly indicate this category of notebooks is actually growing.

Then came across this blog dedicated to UMPCs. I was a little surprised at the variety of models that are getting quite a bit popular. Though I missed the opportunity for writing about them, the idea keeps swirling in my mind that I should go ahead and start writing about them. This may become of the niches I am looking for eventually.

VIA technologies' C7 chip seems to be getting quite poplar as x86 compatible processor of choice for such devices. May be I should start with an article on this little chip first!
