Everyone’s into cheap ultra-portables now. ECS and MSI already announced their versions. This new one is called Gecko (designed by Norhtec) — an energy efficient, rugged, and highly compatible laptop. Check out the pics and specs after the jump.
At 7 inches, it follows the Asus Eee PC with an 800 x 480 pixel screen size. It also has a built-in WIFI, LASN port, 3-in-1 memory card reader, 256 MB DDR 2 RAM (up to 1GB RAM) and 4GB SSD or a 40 GB HDD.
Pretty much like the Eee PC right? This UMPC is powered by a 1GHz VIA C7M CPU and will last about 3.5 hours of battery life. You can have Linux or Windows installed as an OS but by default, it will come with Linpus Lite Linux pre-installed.
From the announcement in their site, it looks like this machine is already in its final testing phase in their Nigerian office and would have been on display during the recent CES 2008. The 40GB HDD version will be priced under $300 but models will come with the default 4GB Solid State Drive (the 40GB option is nice!).
So far, this the the closest commercial model to the Asus Eee PC I’ve ever seen and the pricing is also very competitive.
Right here is the perfect site for anybody
who would like to find out about this topic. You realize so much its almost tough to argue with
you (not that I actually will need to…HaHa).
You definitely put a fresh spin on a topic that has been discussed for a long time.
Excellent stuff, just wonderful!
Thanks for some other great article. Where else could
anyone get that kind of info in such a perfect
method of writing? I have a presentation next week,
and I am on the look for such information.

Wow that was strange. I just wrote an extremely long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear.
Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyway, just wanted
to say wonderful blog!

of this sector do not realize this. You should proceed your writing.
I’m confident, you’ve a great readers’ base already!
And aside from the mowing and weeding, feeding your
lawn is equally important as well. The organic matter that lawns produce
gives rich nutrients to the soil, which are
actually important in keeping its structure healthy.
If money is an issue, you can save money by purchasing a hand core aerator.
Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult
time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs
and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies
for being off-topic but I had to ask!
What’s up Dear, are you really visiting this web site daily, if so then you will definitely
take fastidious know-how.
I love it whenever people get together and share ideas.
Great site, keep it up!
I was curious if you ever thought of changing the layout of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to
say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it
better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
Hi there, i read your blog from time to time and i
own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of

me insane so any support is very much appreciated.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my
blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you

Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly
enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
