Space Cube, the smallest PC in the world
Vikas Shekhawat | May 2 2006



All right, it’s the smallest PC in the world, but what about functioning? The miniature space cube measures just 2×2x 2.2 inches and is powered by a 300 MHz CPU and 64 MB of SDRAM. Despite its size, they’ve been able to squeeze in flash memory, USB, Ethernet, monitor port, space wire, serial connection, and a microphone.



Manufactured by Shimafuji, Japan, who else could have done this other than the Japanese, the micro PC runs on Atom Linux, so you know what to expect from it. Sounds good, still, we’re happy with our jumbo system or would love to load our pockets with the Treo or Blackberry in stead, because they don’t demand an extra monitor to actually view things and are pretty good enough to do the job of a pocket PC.

It’s nice looking send me cost of this PC.

I contacted the maker of the Space Cube, A company called Shamafuji a company of about 14 people who developed the Space Cube. Their web site is http://www.shimafuji.co.jp. and it’s in Japanese, so you should have translator in your web browser to view their site.

I sent them an e-mail which i retrieved from their site e-mail addr. ( info@shimafuji.co.jp ). I inquired about purchasing 5 or so space cubes for myself. The next day, i received a response from Hiroki Kamata, an employee or worker for the company who said they have never sold it abroad (the space cube) - But they are discussing it, and i was told that ”Star-Dendee” is to sell this item abroad (To the US.) He provided me with a URL:

http://www.star-dundee.com

Check with the web site. The space cube currently is slightly over 300 Japanese, or Euro dollars, (according to Shamafuji web site) I was unable to determine from the web site exactly if it was Japanese or euro they were referring to, but the figure they gave me was just over ”300”

We’re all looking forward to owning one of these sweet little puppies!
