Engadget has the scoop as usual… the idea being that we are all skeptical at this point and are assuming this is a photoshoped hoax, but if it’s not… that’s a slick device!

Lemmings HO!

Google Switch

They also mention that the device has GPS built in (for Google Maps) and also streams apps, contacts, information, etc. all on the fly to the device and there is no internal storage (probably a cache, but the idea being that the device doesn’t have some 30GB hard drive on it that will fill up). Interesting… don’t you need to be on some crazy high speed network for this device not to suck? Or is the idea that it would be used in areas where Google tried to roll out city-wide wifi? Seems too limited…
