"This year Transmeta exhibited with a small booth, showcasing its two latest CPUs, the TM8000 Efficeon, and the shrunken down TM5700/TM5900 processors; essentially a TM5800 core with a 1.0mm pitch OPGA package about the size of a postage stamp. This newest iteration of the venerable low power Crusoe processor is sure to garner interest for applications where power efficiency and package footprint are equally important concerns. Of special note is the newly announced OQO model 1 "Ultra Personal Computer" (or UPC for short). The OQO model 1 will retail for between $1500-$2000 USD by the fall of 2004; running on a 1GHz TM5800 Crusoe processor with 20GB hard drive and 256MB RAM. Battery life is pegged at 6 hours, thanks in part to a transflective LCD screen that can be viewed in direct sunlight just as easily as in the office. The small PC also features Firewire, a microphone, multifunction thumbwheel, a full size USB1.1 port, digital stylus, removab!
le battery, 3.5mm headphone jack (which could make for a very powerful MP3 player with the right software!), external docking cable and support for 1280x1024 external video resolutions."
