Aigo MID with Sliding Keyboard and 3MP Camera

They are essentially the same MID from the same manufacturer except for differences in cosmetics and possibly operating system.

This MID features a sliding keyboard and a 3 MegaPixel camera. Aigo also shows a gesture recognition ability which I think is critical in any MIDs. Aigo runs RedFlag Linux/Midinux, while Gigabyte MID runs Ubuntu Linux. They both sport Intel Menlow platform.
