The Yuno PC mug is a regular coffee mug that includes a touchscreen display wrapped around the outside. You can customize the screen to display email, weather, traffic, stocks, daily comics, or whatever else you like to read in the morning. It also has a feature which lets you choose a custom screensaver image to display.

We think this would make a really cool device, despite it seeming a bit gimmicky at first glance. The ability to check small bits of information without actually needing a full-fledged computer in front of you is quite useful even to the non-business world. It’s impressive that technology has become so compact that people are dreaming up such unique places to use it.

Of course this is just a concept, so we’re not sure if it’ll ever make it to the market. We wouldn’t mind sipping our coffee or tea from one of these every morning though.

As you may know, the MacBook Air uses specially developed Intel Core 2 Duo chips that are much smaller than regular chips. These processors may soon start appearing in other PCs as well. The chips could potentially be used to create competition for “the world’s thinnest and lightest notebook” (which as far we’re concerned is fantastic news - anything that pushes the market and the industry forward through competition is highly welcomed).

Company names weren’t specified, but as of now there are 2 manufacturers already working the design into their next machine.

We look forward to seeing what kinds of portable and lightweight laptops will come out of this, as they will have a hard time competing with the good looks and classiness of the MacBook Air.
