For those of us who prefer their online gaming and internet surfing on the go, then this next gadget should be right up your alley: the G100, as revealed by POSDATA. Touted as the first ever mobile gaming device to take advantage of WiMAX, it's set to take the gaming world by storm - as not only does it offer high-speed internet surfing on the go, but also online gameplay that could turn out to be free of any lag whatsoever. Awesome.

So what does the G100 actually capable of? We're not sure of most of the details yet - that being, graphics and sound - but what we do know is that it will take advantage of WiMAX. WiMAX is essentially a more powerful version of Wi-Fi, with its range able to cover vast areas instead of just a few meters. This pretty much means that you'll be able to play online virtually anywhere - and you don't have to walk all over just to find an access point.

Looking at the G100, it certainly looks the part of a gaming handheld. It sports a four-inch touch sensitive screen, as well as a sliding eight-button control pad. Handy.

And if you're worried if it's just going to be a gaming device, fret not - besides WiMAX, it also supports both Wi-Fi and BlueTooth networks for added enjoyment - a great feature, considering that users can hook up the G100 to their laptops for access to any of those three networks.

Certainly a very cool new gadget from POSDATA. Updates as we get them!
