Our friends at Concrete Software have made a number of fantastic apps for Windows Mobile and the iPhone/iPod Touch (and I am told their apps for other platforms don’t suck so bad either, though I have never tried them.)  So, I was pretty excited to give their latest game, Nintaii a try.  Hit the jump to see what I really thought.

Over the last couple of weeks, there has been some talks about a new Dos emulator that would allow S60 phone users to install and run Windows on their devices. We’ve seen screenshots, we’ve seen short videos, but there’s nothing better than trying it and seeing it live, is there? So I picked up my trusty Nokia N82 which runs S60, and went into the shady corners of the internet to unearth the installation files and guides. I did hit some bumpers along the road, but in less than 3 or 4 hours, as my followers on Twitter might testify, I had Windows 95 as well as Windows 3.1 running on it. I even found a configuration file that allowed me to choose between each of the operating systems. Enough with the talking, and let’s show you how it looks:

As I mentioned in the video, there is another project going on aiming to put the Mac OS on the iPhone, and they seem to be succeeding. All of this goes a long way to show how blurry the lines between a computer and a mobile are nowadays. Aand although Windows on my N82 is pretty much useless, given the small resolution and the slow processor, it’s still nice to see that it can be done. Personally, I can’t wait to run Windows 98 or XP maybe on a larger touchscreen device like the Nokia N97. That’d be phenomenal.

Asus is riding the EeePC wave big time- first we heard about upcoming 9 inch model… then units that would be shipping with Windows XP pre-installed… and now this–

The E-Monitor will be an all-in-one device similar to Apple’s iMac and Dell’s XPS One. E-Monitor will cut into the 19-21-inch market and will come with a built-in TV tuner. Pricing is set at US$499, compared to the iMac’s price of US$1,199-2,299 and the XPS One’s price of US$1,499-2,399. E-Monitor will also be based on Intel’s Shelton’08 platform and will be launched in September this year.

That’s right, the diminutive EeePC will be coming in an all-in-one unit that Asustek is already comparing to the Dell One and the iMac.

Love the pricing.

Love the built-in tv tuner (Apple, are you listening??)

But if the speed and usability are anything like the EeePC I used for a week, comparing the upcoming E-Monitor to the One or the iMac is like comparing Apples and… Oranges.
