Motorola has announced a rather interesting computer based around Android in China that serves up some entertainment content. The HMC3260 has an 18.6in LED touchscreen that plays TV, movies, games, browses the web and hmmm..... oh yea.... runs Android Apps. Now its Spec time.....
- Freescale iMX53 ARM Cortex at clocked at 1GHz
- 1GB DDR RAM, 4GB NAND Flash Memory
- 18.5in LED [1366x768 @ 60Hz, widescreen] Touchscreen Display
- Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, with customized Android Launcher
- TV and video client
- Broadband internet via EuroDOCSIS and LAN (DHCP /PPPoE, etc.)
This is not the first android based desktop to hit the web, but its once in a blue moon that we see one form a big name such as Motorola. Speaking of which, coming from Motorola (a Google owned company) one would think to see a least Android 4.0 ICS on a device like this, so I wouldn't expect a lot from a device such as this.
There no word from Moto on availability or pricing, but if you wish to (page is in Chinese) you can find more info at the source link below. I for one, love the idea of Android one day becoming a common place on the desktop, but Android 2.3 Gingerbread isn't it.
