Socket Communications has introduced something interesting in the new SoMo 650 handheld computer that uses anti-bacterial plastic in its construction. The handheld has a fast 624 MHz processor, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, a large bright QVGA display, and plenty of SDRAM and Flash memory. The antibacterial SoMo 650 handheld computer and docking cradle will be available in fall 2008.

If you want to see it up close and personal, the sample product will be on display at the HIMSS annual conference and exhibition in Orlando, Florida. I guess it won’t be long before they make tons of gadgets from the same antibacterial plastic.
