Tatung throws its hat into the Android game
Odds are you've never seen a phone by Tatung -- much less owned one -- but according to the Taiwanese firm's chairman, the company is now pursuing development of smartphones powered by the Android platform. DigiTimes believes the phones will find their way to Tatung InfoComm, winner of one of Taiwan's WiMAX licenses -- and the combination of 4G plus Android is a tantalizing thought indeed. Of course, that would put these bad boys no closer to US shores than any other Tatung handset -- but at this point, Android needs whatever hardware it can get, no matter how geographically limited it might be.

Why is the image WiMo then? Yes, I realize there probably isn't a picture of the device in question, but why pick a WiMo image for it?

Not just any winmo image... if that umpc shot is real... who the hell would use a umpc with an OS that doesn't support touch???

What are you talking about?
The world is chock full of all sorts of touch devices and smartphones using win mobile.
I have got two of them: an HTC touchHD and a Samsung Omnia and they both do an excellent job in making win mobile6.1 touch driven.
