CUPP PunkThis | Dual OS

Cupp’s PunkThis is a board that replaces your 2.5 inch SATA hard drive enabling the device to be able to switch between Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) via a hotkey in real-time.

The Punk This has the following specs and ports:

• DM3730 ARM CPU
• 512MB of RAM
• Wifi radio
• mini-PCIe Socket
• SATA port
• SD Card slot
• Other connections to allow usb, video and audio interfacing with the host.

 

A key point to also note would be that; although the PinkThis replaces the computer’s hard drive, it also allows for an SSD to be connected to it via the mini-PCIe Socket or an SDcard. These facilities will allow for extra storage.
