iiView Showcases A2 Netbook
On the Windows-7 press event today, we have a little surprise. iiView, a Singapore-based provider, presented a sexy Netbook with a generous 12.1-inch display.
Cyril Alonzo, Chief Executive Officer of iiView, said that instead of just another Netbook to the already saturated market, it will become a desirable product. A page from the Apple MacBook Air, the iiView A2 is a sleek Atom-based mini-laptop. In fact, the design is so similar that even the monitor and USB port is hidden inside a flap on the side.
Specifications are:
- Atom 1.6GHz processor
- 2GB RAM
- Intel 945 chipset
- 12.1-inch 1,280 x 800-pixel resolution
- 320GB HDD
- Two USB ports, mini-HDMI port, 2-in-1 headphone/mic jack
- 802.11b/g, 10/100 Ethernet
- Six-cell battery
- Windows 7 RC1 with Vista Home Premium license
Interestingly enough, this Netbook comes preinstalled with Windows 7 RC1. Cyril said the reason is that Vista is not a sufficient practical experience on a Netbook. Fortunately, because the machine comes with a Vista Home Premium license is required for the free upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium if it starts on 22 October. The iiView A2 will be in Singapore next week. We have a review unit on hand, so look for a complete overview of this sexy machine soon.
