We’ve spotted an early prototype of an upcoming MID from Mitac powered by Tegra and running Windows CE, and we like where it’s headed. There are actually a lot of similarities to Mobinnova’s smartbook, though we suppose it’s more of a Tegra thing: CE with a custom interface on top, emphasis on 720p media playback and output (there’s an HDMI jack and TV tuner) and what promises to be an uber-competitive price and good battery life for the form factor. Mitac also plans on selling the thing with a fold-out case / keyboard combo to sweeten the deal. The unnamed device is quite thin, but unfortunately the unit we saw was out of battery — though NVIDIA assured us it was “really cool” while it worked. Sure guys, sure.
