    Mio's got quite the interesting duo set up at Computex: the Windows Mobile 6.1-packin' G50 and the two-faced LEAP K1. As for the former, you may know it better as the Lovebird, but it seems a more corporately accepted monicker was chosen at the last minute for the quad-band GSM handset. As for the latter, this mysterious creature actually has two faces to fondle -- one of which packs a traditional numeric keypad, while the other features an expansive panel perfect for serving up routes. Check the links below for more details on both.Read - Mio G50Read - Mio LEAP K1

  • MiTAC Mio Lovebird spotted

    MiTAC Mio seems set to bring its 'B' game to the Windows Mobile World with this barely inspired bit of design work. Packing 2GB of ROM -- whoa! -- 64MB RAM, quad-band GSM, touchscreen, Windows Mobile 6.1, and memory expansion with microSD. As far as wireless connectivity goes we only see Bluetooth, but seeing as this little handset lacks any 3G magic, the Lovebird may get some updates before it ships. Though, if it ends up at retail as is, we wouldn't expect it to tank your wallet come check-out time.
