The leaked manual for the Samsung SPH-P9200 revealed the full specifications of this ultra-mobile PC device. The UMPC features a 5-inch 800×480 touch-sensitive display, a folding keyboard, a Via C7-M processor at 1GHz, 512MB of RAM, and a 30GB hard drive, and supports Wifi, Wibro and HSDPA networks, according to the manual.
The 1.43-pound SPH-P9200, also known as the Deluxe MIT SPH-P9200, provides 2-2.5 hours of run time with a standard battery, and up to 5 hours with an extended battery unit.
It features a 1.3 megapixel camera, a port replicator (2xUSB, power, LAN, VGA), and a 15-pin accessory port with an unclear function, as well as an optical joystick with mouse buttons. According to specifications, the SPH-P9200 UMPC hasn’t any Bluetooth module.

Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and
say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m
still new to everything. Do you have any tips for novice blog writers?
I’d genuinely appreciate it.
This would be the perfect replacement for my laptop. I travel all the time for my job in outside sales and would love to buy a device like this, mainly due to is size and touch type keyboard.
This is a great computer that is litterally a foldable origami computer. This is the first UMPC where they realized we do not want a new input method. Just give me a keyboard. Until now I thought UMPC were just for the geeky IT dudes. I would definately buy this device as long as it is under a couple of grand or so
I think this is the closest thing to an alternative to me lugging a laptop all the time. It might not be the most blazing fast nor largest memory but if I can buy one in the US, I would do it right now! I think Samsung is great for being one of the only companies not blindly following the MS spec. What has been missing since computer were created is a pocket laptop with a real keyboard running windows. There has never been one created before and I hope more such devices come available.
My worry is that the millions here in the US and around the world will not be able to purchase one. I say that as their first version the SP p9000 never was sold outside of Korea.
The main problem with all umpc’s thus far is that since they are not pocket size, they will be compared to laptop alternatives and then other than geeks wanting a unique niche computer everyone still opts for a laptop. UMPC’s should be pocket size devices that run windows and have integrated touch type keyboards. That way they provide a functional althernative to the undreds of millions of laptop computers. The reality is the general populations buys, prefers devices with touch type keyboards so make what we want not what geeks want.
There are millions whom would buy a pocket laptop with a real keyboard running windows.
