WiBrain has started shipping its B1LE and B1LH, two MIDs (mobile Internet devices) based on Ubuntu Linux and Via C7M processors. Additionally, the Korean company will soon unveil an Intel Atom-based "i1" MID (shown) that features built-in cellular networking based on HSDPA (high-speed downlink packet access).
WiBrain says it will unveil the i1 (also referred to as "Tomorrow's Communicator") at the IFA 2008 show in Berlin, Germany, which starts Aug, 29th and runs until Sept. 3rd. The only clue offered by WiBrain about the i1, other than its processor, is that the device will be able to use HSDPA cellular data services. Most commonly found supporting downstream data rates of 3.6Mbps, HSDPA service may also be available in some locations at 7.2Mbps, or even 14.4Mbps.
