Elitegroup Computer Systems’ ECS G10IL mini-notebooks, featuring the Intel Atom processor, 10-inch displays, and HSPA connectivity, will be available in the United States in September, said company’s vice president of sales Henry Kwan.
In an interview for Laptop Magazine, Kwan said that there will be an 8GB SSD version running Linpus Lite 9.4 Linux and an 80GB hard drive version running Windows XP. Pricing will start at $399, but the least expensive systems will not include 3G options, he added.
The company also plans to launch an 8.9-inch screen version of the netbook, but US customers will be the most likely offered with the 10-inchers only.
According to an ECS’ press release, the Intel Atom CPU in the G10IL is accompanied by the Intel 945 GSE chipset, and up to 2GB of system memory. ECS said HSPA (HSDPA/HSUPA) mobile broadband technology built into the G10IL allows download speeds of up to 7.2Mb/s and up to 2Mb/s upload.
The G10IL mini-laptop also sports an embedded 1.3-megapixel web camera, three USB ports, Ethernet LAN port, a 56k modem, wireless LAN and Bluetooth, and a 4-in-1 media card reader.
