If you don’t know what UMPC means, it’s time you got an update. Could this be the start of computing 3.0? No way to tell, this gear is too new to call in terms of overall popularity and sales trends. It could be the Betamax of computing, but could easily wind up being a serious contender for your PC dollars. In case you’re living in a cave in Tora Bora at present, UMPC stands for UltraMobile PC. And no, these are NOT laptops, they’re far too small. Pocket-sized PC power, with ultra-efficient battery technology and some pre-loaded with Vista Business and on-the-go business software. We love anything that’s portable, powerful, and can slip into the inner pocket of your leather jacket:

5. TabletKiosk presents the EO UMPC v7110 tablet PC. This under-a-grand model has a one-gig VIA C7-M low voltage processor, up to a gig of memory, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Windows XP. If you have never used a tablet PC before, brace yourself for a the learning curve, don’t panic, and remember that it’s made for productivity AND portatbility. This ain’t made to replace your desktop, but it will serve you well on the road once you get used to the lack of a keyboard.

How dumb will the USB revolution get? How far away from USB-powered male-enhancement kits and self-hypnosis kits are we? By the looks of this list, those two items are just around the corner. Check out the official GearCrave Top Ten Dumbest USB Gadgets Ever:

How do you like this cute little guy? It’s the Meraki Wi-Fi mini repeater, designed to extend the range of your Wi-Fi coverage by about 100 feet indoors, and as far away as 700 feet outside. This means plenty of great lawnchair net browsing when the weather gets nice again, but it’s also a great way to share your Internet with your neighbors, family members, that homeless guy hanging out under the street light, anybody at all. If running a non-secured Wi-Fi network is your bag, that is. This thing has plenty of great uses around a large home or as a way to get Wi-Fi into a basement or man room otherwise hard to get a decent signal in. Meraki announced a solar powered version of this earlier in the year but so far it’s not for sale on the web site.
