Coby first launched its ten and twelve inch computers at the CES event way back in January and yet nothing seems to have materialised when it comes to getting them into retail outlets until they broke cover last month. Now it seems that there could be another little computer joining the Coby pair and this time it is going to be a smaller 8.9 inch model. This is early days for this model, so details are short but there are some place holders already being set up on online retailer’s sites.
