Home made UMPC
There are customers that are very hard to please, and there are some of them that are willing to do what ever it takes to get what they want. And this is the case of one of todoUMPC forum members who did not find the ideal UMPC in the market so he decided to make his own one. To do that he used parts from a Aspire One Netbook and a touch screen kit.
I’m sure that from the above picture nobody could have guessed that it’s a home made device. Am I wrong?

Third TodoUMPC.com Contest
If you have not got an UMPC yet here is a chance to win 1 of the two UMPCs being gave away in this Contest at todoUMPC.
It’s not an easy task to convince a reader to give up his Anonymous condition and make him participate in a forum sharing time, asking and answering questions.
But the TodoUMPC community still growing, up to the point that we are now celebrating our 3000 registered members. So we thought about a special contest to celebrate, we are asking users to become TodoUMPC reporters for one day [for the chance of winning an UMPC].
Check this link to know the details.
And yes, this is not a mistake, they are giving away no one but two UMPC, an AmtekU560 and a Wibrain B1. And yes again, you can participate in English!

Probably is not too polite to come here and talk about my "adventures" in what I consider my first home. But Chris knows me well enough to know that I do this to promote the use of Tablet PC and UMPC all around the world.
TodoUMPC giveaway
todoUMPC, The Spanish UMPC online store and Forum will give away a Amtek U560 and Wibrain B1 for free once they reach 3000 users registered in their forum, by the way, the only forum in the world with handwriting recognition. They have not released yet what needs to be done to win one of these prizes but the Administration has told me that they want to have a contest where anybody speaking English or Spanish can participate. Of course, being a registered member will be something that’s going to be taking in account but wont be mandatory.
Giving away a Amtek U560 UMPC
todoUMPC the largest Spanish community about UMPC just announced that they are preparing a event called 3000 - that’s the number of registered members that they are going to reach soon - and for that event they are giving away few things. The page is teasing members and not members with this event so they have not said officially what has to be done to get any of the prizes and what are the prizes. The only thing known so far is that there are going to be to big prizes and one of them is a Amtek U560 UMPC.
The event will be opened to all users around the world speaking Spanish or English. But like I said, no details of how and what needs to be done to participate have been revealed yet.
I’ll keep posting about all the details as soon as I have them.
Tecnology and good wine
Imagine that you own a wine-bar and you have more than 12000 bottles of wine in your warehouse. What can you do to easily let your customers pick what they want drink? Monvínic is a wine-bar with a little restaurant and even a library where you can learn all you need about wines.
This company decided to use a sophisticated system with Amtek T226 TabletPCs provided by todoUMPC to help customers to pick their drinks from 3000 types of wines. All they have to do is to use the touch screen selecting the wine and the order is taken and served in few minutes.
