xpphone

Truth be told, I’d be more inclined to buy one of those old people cellphones than something like this (or the iPhone for that matter!) The ITG xpPhone, which will debut at Computex, is, yes, a cellphone that, yes, runs Windows XP. Yes. As a Mac user, the only reason I’d boot into Windows XP is to fire up uTorrent, or play Team Fortress 2, neither of which I see running too well on the phone.

What else does it have? Well, besides the full keyboard, it’s got space for up to 1GB of RAM, a 120GB hard drive or 64GB solid state drive, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, 3.0-megapixel camera, etc. It’s a phone in the year 2009: that’s what they do now.

But let’s be honest for one second: there’s a zero percent chance that any of y’all will drop your BlackBerry/iPhone/Android/Pre for this.

But, yes, it’s neat to see what’s “out there.”
