MIU has just announced their M*Free UMPC which they're dubbing a Hybrid Dual Portable Computer (HDPC). It's a dual-booting UMPC that comes with Windows XP with an additional Windows CE install or Linux. The Linux flavor of choice is Qplus which is an embedded version of linux that seems to be popular in Korea. Under the hood they've got a VIA C7-M CPU at up to 1.0 GHz, a 30GB hard drive and a sweet seven hours of battery life. It loks like this device is ready to do everything that you'll want a UMPC to do, from GPS to VOIP as well as video conferencing. Look for this one at the beginning of the second half of this year coming in at around $500.
