Posted by | 12/16/2008 | 2 Comments

compaltabascoPictures of this former mystery device have been circulating along with rumors about just what the heck it was. Speculation was all over the map including that this swivel screen device was going to a new Palm entry called the Roteo.

Well, Jenn at Pocketables has done the dirty work and it is looking more and more like this is a MID from Compal called the Tabasco.

Certainly that’s hot and spicy news if it all pans out the way Jenn’s legwork suggests it will bit there is still some doubt about its future. But at least we’ve got a one company that isn’t afraid of some sexy naming conventions either.

But before you get your jalapenos in a bunch, Jenn points out that there is still much we don’t know about this device, or who is going to bring this to market. So, we’ll just have to wait and see.
