My OQO mod2s just arrived! All 4 of them; portable testbed here it
comes!!! I hope....
The units weigh in at ~.75lbs, and measure aprox. 5 5/8 x 3 3/8 x 1 1/8"
A little larger when you push up the 5" screen to reveal the keyboard.
WiFi, Bluetooth, HDMI, and a single USB built in; an adapter for VGA and
Ethernet. (WiMax extra, I think the touch screen is also optional and I
did not get that).
The processor is a VIA C7-M 1.5Ghz processor, with 1Gb memory, and a
60Gb harddrive. XP pro installed.
From XP tools, I have learned that:
WiFi is - Atheros AR5006X5
Ethernet is - Realtek RTL8139
Video is - VIA/S3G UniChrome ProII IGP
Audio is - SigmaTel
Default screen res is 800x640 (can increase then use capacitor scroll bars).
I have not looked to see if I can get into the BIOS, I expect to be able
to boot from a USB CDdrive (it comes with a recovery CD).
There are old instructions on the net for installing UBUNTU
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OQO), but of course I want Centos on it...
