June 2009, Taipei, TaiwanA mobile computing revolution arrived June 2, at the Computex 2009 show in Taipei, where content providers, carriers and consumers get their first look at a whole new category of high performance communication devices. The Mobinnova Beam™ is first in Mobinnova’s line of ultra-portable computing devices powered by the NVIDIA® Tegra™ Computer-on-a-Chip. The 2 lb. Mobinnova Beam™ is like a netbook in that it’s small, has a keyboard, and offers easy access to the Internet. However that’s where the similarities end. The Mobinnova Beam™ powers up instantly, connects directly to a 3G wireless network, offers hours of continuous use, full page web browsing, and delivers graphics performance never seen before on a mobile computing device–all packaged in Mobinnova’s stylishly thin design. “This truly portable device is a pleasure to hold and to use. It offers 1080p high-definition video playback, full Internet browsing and an impressive battery life,” says KC Kuo, Chairman and CEO of Mobinnova. “We like to say you can take in anywhere -- it ‘runs on fun’. It’s a real game changer.”

The size of a hardback book and weighing less than 2 lbs., the Mobinnova Beam™ is compact, quiet and cool. “It’s the most powerful mobile Internet device you can easily pack in your purse, backpack or briefcase. You can use the Mobinnova Beam™ for hours, even days

between charges,” says Mike Holland, Vice President of Business Development for Mobinnova. You can also use it anywhere–on a plane to New Jersey, at a café in Paris, on the sidelines of a soccer game, in a college dorm room, or sitting on the couch. “The Mobinnova Beam’s advanced power management means hours of viewing pictures, HD videos, Internet browsing, and reading and responding to email,” says Holland. 

The Mobinnova Beam™ is the first in a family of mobile devices based on the Tegra* platform from NVIDIA, the inventor of the GPU.  “Mobinnova has designed several interesting Tegra-based, mobile Internet devices that will surprise the market with their sleek, lightweight design and long battery life,” said Mike Rayfield, General Manager Tegra Business at NVIDIA. “Tegra adds the secret sauce to deliver a desktop-like Internet experience and cell phone-like battery life in these new designs.” “The Mobinnova Beam™ answers the portable communications challenge,” says Mobinnova’s Chairman and CEO, KC Kuo. “We are honored to partner with NVIDIA to create products that make people’s lives easier, more productive, and more enjoyable.”
