Mysterious Asian iPad clone runs Windows 7, available now

Well here’s your head-scratcher for the morning: Chinese gadget website Shop Kami, which is kind of like the Mos Eisley of tech shopping, has a multiouch, 3G tablet computer running Windows 7 available now. Yes, now.

Window G85HD PMP is somewhere between awesome and awkward

You know, the vast majority of Chinese PMPs are underwhelming, and we can’t say for sure that the Windows G85HD is any different, but the video walkthrough of the user interface has us interested at the very lease. Reportedly, the all-white, touchscreen-centric device packs a Rockchip RK2806 processor, a 4.3-inch panel (800 x 480), 3.5mm headphone jack, 720p video output, 8GB or 16GB of internal memory, a microSD card slot, FM radio tuner, a Chinese-English dictionary and support for a multitude of file formats. There’s nary a word on when and where you’ll be able to find this, but if you find yourself situated in Shenzhen, feel free to scope things out at the local market and fill us in.

[Thanks, Sere83]

Shotgun revolver makes Dirty Harry’s .44 Magnum look wimpy

Dirty Harry might have thought that his .44 Magnum was “the most powerful handgun in the world”, but I guess he never ran into a Chinese gangster with one of these.

JXD V3 handheld is confused, confusing and altogether interesting

We won’t front — there’s little chance we’d actually use JXD’s V3 handheld, but it’s not for lack of interest. This here PMP / game player hybrid isn’t apt to leave the shores of Asia, but for those in that neck of the woods, this unit offers up emulators for a slew of game consoles, a 4.3-inch display, a 5 megapixel camera and plenty of file format support to handle your favorite music and video. Reportedly, the device even features an FM radio tuner, and in case you’re curious as to why there are two D-pads on this thing, it’s because you’ll need ‘em to get through certain Game Boy / NES titles. Or so they say. We can’t say we’re stoked about the $112 price tag, but in a way, we’re kind of in love with the whole flip-top design.

Motorola Backflip spotted in the wilds of China

Motorola’s Backflip has yet to springboard itself over to AT&T, but those who call China home can hop on the bandwagon right away. Said phone — which sports a full touchscreen and a physical QWERTY thanks to the horizontal clamshell design — is now available from Moto’s Chinese portal for 4,298 Chinese yuan (in unlocked form), which translates to right around $630. While the rest of the world awaits the phone’s launch later this quarter, you can hit up Mobile.163.com for a downright beautiful gallery of in the wild shots. Go on, it’s safe. We think.

China’s ‘CityLocal’ envisions a world where everyone works from home

Tokyo-bsed studio Aberrant Architecture has created a vision of the future for prominent Chinese businessman Gordon Wu called “CityLocal,” which turns China’s city of Shenzhen into a progressive business model. The concept revolves around everyone working from home, but what’s crazy is the lengths the plan goes to help workers make the transition from the office to the home office. There are elevators that can be installed in homes, a transforming truck (pictured above) to simulate the experience of a cafeteria anywhere, and even treadmills coupled with TVs to make it seem like you’re walking around an office

Microsoft patches IE security hole, human rights activities fully resume

Ready for an update? Good. If you’re still using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (versions 5.01 to 8) for some inexplicable reason, there’s a patch that you should probably install on the double — that is, if you’re a hardcore human rights activist that just might end up on a Chinese hit list. All kidding aside, the devs in Redmond have broken free from their usual monthly update cycle in order to push out a patch to fix the hole that was exploited by a group of sophisticated hackers last week. Refresh that Windows Update if you’re scared, or — you know — just download one of the many other free web browsers that are far, far superior to IE.
