Android Phone Fans —
If there is one thing we could change about the GiiNii Movit Mini it’s the name - everything else is straight up bread and butter. Its not hard to see why WE think it would be one of the coolest things at CES 2009, but when Engadget echoes those sentiments and Gizmodo claims the “idea sounds so sexy”, we realize we’re not alone.

Noteworthy mobile gadgets to look forward in 2009

... than only meager 256MB, perhaps the developer wish to surpress the cost and keep the price tag low at $149. Thank goodness there's a microSD expansion though.
Giinii plans to release the Movit Mini and a 7-inch Movit Maxx at around the middle of this year. If just Palm hasn't announced Pre™, than I'm pretty sure this device would have taken brighter spotlight at CES 2009, especially since it got Android in it.
