Earlier today, we posted about the incredible sums ($50,000 USD) paid for two Chinese UMPC domains. Kicking myself needlessly for not registering ultranauts.cn earlier, I went ahead and checked out those Chinese domains, including UMPC.cn. And low-and-behold, this little site showed why it was worth the big bucks!
UMPC.cn has unveiled the Apple UMPC to the world. Sure, it’s all rumor an innuendo at this point. And it’s good rumor at that! A great mock-up, realistic specs, a high-price domain and home-base to all Apple manufacturing adds a certain air of credibiltiy to this. Either that or we’re being sensationalist. And when have we ever done that?
Google effectively translates the Chinese site and offers up these tidbits about what Apple will launch under their “UMPC products”:
UMPC size only palm size screens are mostly about seven inches, and all of its configuration and interfaces with a few ordinary notebook, and coupled with Wi-Fi wireless, Laya and other functions, regardless of sexual performance and portable, are quite attractive.
Well, that just maybe one for the history books, folks… and you heard it at Ultranauts first. Not only does Apple have a UMPC headed our way, but it will apparently be “quite attractive” regardless of and despite your sexual performance. This is truly a UMPC that the geek crowd can get behind.
Where do I pre-order? Read it all here.

Fake.
1. Apple never create a special Tiger “Tablet Mac” Edition. All needed already are in OS.
2. No iSight.
The quote suggests that it is a UMPC with a 7 inch screen.
But the diagram shows that it has a 15 inch screen.
It is not a UMPC (Ultra-Mobile PC). If anything it is just a tablet pc. I thought Apple user always critized Microsoft for there push to create the tablet pc. It looks like Microsoft is the one being copied here.
That image is a MacBook Tablet mock-up posted on Engadget six months ago.
