Clarion to introduce GPS-equipped MiND, acronym guidebook lands another

Really, Clarion? You couldn’t find it in your heart to just settle on UMPC or MID? Instead, what we’ve got is yet another combination of letters that really means nothing at all — the MiND (Mobile internet and Navigation Device) is little more than a rather awkwardly-shaped UMPC with built-in GPS, which by our estimation, doesn’t deem it worthy of its own moniker. All angst aside, the Linux-based machine will reportedly roll out in America later this year (and Europe the next), and while the standard version will come equipped with Bluetooth and WiFi, a premium iteration should be available with WWAN. Word from the Computex floor pegs the starting price at around $700.
