Inside the O2 Joggler
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010Today I give you some nice pictures of the £99.99 flop that is the O2 joggler by OpenPeak Inc sold by O2 in the UK.
The product in itself is terrible. If you can get it connected to your network, it refuses to do anything before it updates itself. It uses some weird ports to do it's updates on, and once you have it running, you'll discover most features that are planned - well aren't there at all. Luckily O2 will be happy to just refund the thing entirely without questions! Possibly due to the fact the thing is just wholly broken.
Either way, the hardware in it is quite impressive for the money. It is based around the "Poulsbo" Intel System Controller Hub US15W. Itself and the atom Z520 CPU should take around 4.5W of power.
On the Joggler there are 512MB of DDR2 (4 x 1 Gbit chips). The wifi is simply a wifi dongle without a case plugged in to the USB port. Anyways enjoy the pictures.
