TAIPEI, Taiwan (AVING Special Report on 'Computex Taipei 2009') -- <Visual News> BenQ(www.benq.com) showcased its MID 'S6' with a 4.8-inch touchscreen at Computex 2009.

The new BenQ S6 Mobile Internet Device (MID), based on Intel® Atom™ processor, formally launched today, and with it, the dawn of a new era in take-anywhere full multimedia/Internet enjoyment. A truly standalone innovation, the S6 trumps all other mobile devices by being simply "more" – more powerful than a Smartphone (it operates like a PC and boasts a 4.8" screen), more mobile than a laptop (at just 6.2"x3.5"x0.9" and 370g), and more intuitive, stylish, and fun than any other device on the market (featuring a highly advanced user interface). In fact, the S6 is an extension of its user, offering intuitive operation via touch and motion. Full HTTP support and high-speed 3.5G cellular and WLAN connectivity empower users with flawless anywhere, anytime Internet – browse, email, and enjoy online videos, images, and digital music without annoying errors, and broken pages. Powerful, fun, and chic, the S6 is the ultimate companion for the ultimate digital lifestyle.

With notebook-grade web-surfing, e-mail, multimedia, and Office capabilities in a palm-sized device, the BenQ MID is in step with today's on-the-go, spontaneous lifestyle. While waiting at a bus stop, users can whip out the slim S6 and be connected to their world in a flash: email, Google, plus five other favorite functions are just a finger tap away; scroll web pages with an intuitive tilt; rotate the MID to go from portrait to landscape view; a quick shake shows thumbnails of all open files; a swipe of a fingertip flips through photos; attach a picture to an e-mail by simply dragging it onto the message. No notebook boots up as fast or operates as easily when walking or standing; no mobile phone displays web content nearly as perfectly; neither comes close to being as intuitive. Engineered for the complete lifestyle, the S6 is also perfect for editing Office files. Built-in microphone, headphone jack, Bluetooth, and speaker complete user needs.
