Venturing away from its usual device nook, the Android platform can now be spotted in this Ramos MID dubbed the W7. It features a 4.8-inch 800×480 touchscreen display, WiFi, and runs on a Rockchip processor. It also boasts of 720p video support though it’ll probably be accessible through HDMI connection only. Likewise, while it does support WiFi, 3G connectivity is not available, but could be featured in in future models.

Live Sky TV viewing via Xbox 360 didn’t make it into the most recent dashboard update, readers report page 17 of the network’s most recent SkyMag indicates it will arrive around mid-October. Additional details flesh out what’s available, while all Xbox Live Gold members (in the appropriate areas) will get access to the Sky Player similar to the PC implementation, you will need a Sky subscription with the appropriate channels to view sports and movie content.

Engadget has it on very good authority that there’s a legitimate reason for the odd appearance of a Hackintosh at IDF last week: Apple was actually the catalyst for Light Peak and is working closely with Intel on the project. Turns out, according to some evidence (documents, conversations) Engadget got ahold of, that Apple actually brought the concept of an optical, one-size-fits-all standard to Intel. Apple apparently had some very specific requirements, which might be why Intel demonstrated Light Peak on a souped-up Hackintosh.
