xpPhone Will Cost $400-650, Run Windows 7 Too

by - source: Tom's Hardware US

Recall that xpPhone that we've mentioned before? Well, there's an estimated price range on it now.

Whenever it releases (which is still a mystery), it'll retail for somewhere between $400 and $650, according to reports from TechTree and Hot Hardware. While that price may sound astronomical when you think of the type of laptop that you could buy with that, it's not that bad considering $400 to $650 is the average price for a modern unsubsidized smartphone.

Perhaps even more interesting than the price, though equally unverified, is that the xpPhone will be able to run Windows 7. Given that the xpPhone's hardware can run Windows XP, fitting Windows 7 on it shouldn't be too far of a leap – other than the device's namesake, of course.

i wonder if the gpu will be able to cope with a decent external monitor? Would be sweet to be able to hook it up to a keyboard/mouse and screen should the need arise!

Seems a bit heavy though... understandable yes, but not viable for a portable personal pocket gadget.
