If you're skeptical about how one might keep those controls straight, you're definitely not alone, but immediately above you can watch a company rep play StarCraft II with the O-Bar PC peripheral. The latter is a Wiimote-alike PC controller with a pair of OMOS Keys that connects via USB dongle, which is sadly not destined for the US market, unlike the OCS-1. Whoops, did we forget to tell you that the Oak Trail handheld itself is headed stateside? Ocosmos says that it is, and assuming talks with a "very strong, very well known" carrier come to fruition, we're looking at a simultaneous launch in the US and Korea in the first half of next year.





We didn't really get the chance to try out the prototypes at IDF 2010, as we were told they were too early to test beyond a brief keyboard press, but Ocosmos did consent to a brief video of the unit playing some StarCraft II footage (notice a theme?) and reps were happy to go into greater detail regarding features. The unit's actually slated to have considerable connectivity with mini-HDMI, mini-USB and a full-size USB port alongside 802.11 b/g WiFi and Bluetooth and 3G under consideration for next year, and there's a microphone, speaker and 1.3 megapixel webcam placed so the unit can be held appropriately for VoIP calls or video chat, plus a 3 megapixel digital imager on the back, a headphone jack, and a hefty removable battery we were politely asked not to take pictures of.
