Title: iMovio iKit
Post by: zaurusrex on August 03, 2017, 09:28:20 am
There was a Linux device announced in 2008 that is somewhat similar to the Zaurus called the iKit by imovio.

I don't think the iKit was ever released because there is no product review and there are only a few images of the product. Anyone else know about the imovio iKit?

Pity that it wasn't released, or at least that no-one reviewed it if it was released. From the photos it looks like the closest Zaurus clone I have ever seen.
