The Kangaroo Desktop Computer is a tiny Windows 10
PC that’s small enough to slide into a pocket. First unveiled this summer, the
Kangaroo is now available for US$ 99. The computer measures just 3″ x 2″ and
weighs about 7 ounces. It has an Intel Atom x5-Z8500 Cherry Trail processor,
2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. It also has a microSD card reader.
There’s also a removable dock that adds an HDMI
port, two USB ports, and a DC power connector. The little computer also has a
fingerprint reader so you can secure your login to Windows 10 using biometrics.
While there’s no Ethernet port, the Kangaroo
supports dual-band 802.11ac WiFi as well as Bluetooth 4.0 so you can connect a
wireless keyboard and mouse while leaving those USB ports free for more
important devices.
Using an HDMI cable, you can hook up the Kangaroo to
any screen, including a television set. There is also a free iOS software
download that will allow users to connect to an iPad. The company claims you
can use the Kangaroo for four hours before needing to recharge the battery.
