Windows Mobile-powered concept MID hands-on

Well, what have we here? While waltzing about the ces floor today, we stumbled upon a conceptual Mio MID that looks suspiciously like Sony’s VAIO P. The currently unnamed device was actually lookin’ pretty sharp, as it boasted a 7-inch WVGA (800 x 480) resolution display, integrated WiFi, a non-removable battery good for eight hours or so and a full QWERTY keyboard. It was also packing a trackball setup, an SD card slot, a few USB ports and audio in / out. We were told that the design was still being finalized and that it wouldn’t ship until mid-2009 at the earliest, and while we’d love to see this piece ship Stateside, we have our doubts. Oh, and did we mention that this thing runs on an evidently skinned version of Windows Mobile? Because it does. Peek the gallery below if you’re in disbelief.
