In Pictures: The Gearhead Show - 8 teeny tiny computers

Even though we're all walking around with computers in our pockets (a.k.a. smartphones) there's still lots of uses for even more and even smaller computers.

WiMM One: A Kitchen Sink on Your Wrist

The diminutive and elegant WiMM One measures just 1.26 by 1.42 by 0.49 inches with a 1-inch-square, 160-by-160-pixel, bi-modal (monochrome reflective and visible in sunlight or full color and backlit), capacitative touch screen, that is splash-resistant and weighs just 0.78 ounces. It has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, an accelerometer, a magnetometer, audible and tactile alerts, 256MB RAM, 2GB of storage, a 667MHz ARM11 processor, and runs a custom branch of Google's Android with support for multiple simultaneous apps. All that for $199. But wait! There's more: The WiMM One comes with a watch strap that the module fits into, there's a dedicated app store, and SDKs and HDKs are available. Outstanding! See my Gearhead review for more detail.
