See you later Apple and Michael Arrington, hellos ICD.  IC who?  Innovative Converged Devices.  Don’t worry, if you haven’t heard of them before I think you’re with the majority, such as myself.  Today they announced something called the Vega and it looks bad ass to say the least.

Inside the 7, 11 and 15-inch touchscreen device (no word on resistive or capacitive; hoping for the latter) is a Tegra powered graphics processor which should make for some explosively fantastic visuals.  Other wonderful features include an Android OS, 3G connectivity, 512MB of RAM, 1.3MP webcam, microSD, Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi b/g, USB 2.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, magnetic dock, accelerometer, ambient light sensor and dual digital microphones.

When the Vega goes on sale in the first half of next year, they’ll be available from a variety of “Tier 1 carriers across North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East” and should be subsidized by a wireless plan signup.

ICD plans to be at next year’s CES so we’ll be sure to score a hands on.
