WIMAX is not supported but the China 3G TD-SCDMA is supported.  The interface/software is still prototype so there's no sound and response is a bit slow, that will change once the device is finalised.  There's 512MB of RAM and uses SSD as storage with 4, 6 and 10GB choices. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[riceman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 8th 2008 8:24AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Video: Lenovo's Ideapad U8 interface scrolls like butter, looks like candy]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/08/video-lenovos-ideapad-u8-interface-scrolls-like-butter-looks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/08/video-lenovos-ideapad-u8-interface-scrolls-like-butter-looks/</guid><description><![CDATA[That thing is fugly as hell.
