Red Fox WizBook laptops

Red Fox and AMD teamed up to develop their own Eee PC competitor and launched the WizBook this week with a much disappointing 400MHz AMD Geode processor. Hate to say the obvious but this is most certainly going to be a bust.

See price and specs below:

redfox wizbook

Processor: AMD LX800 500MHz (10-inch model) and AMD LX700 400MHz (8-inch model)
Operating System: Linux
Screen Size: 8 and 10.2 inch (1024×600, 16:9)
Storage: 20GB and 60GB HDD
Memory: 256MB and 512MB RAM
802.11b/g WiFi
PCMCIA slot
SD/MMC/MS card reader
2 USB port
2200mAh and 2200mAh (3.5 & 4.5 battery hours, respectively)
Under 1.2kg

Price for the two models are Php16,000 and Php20,000 respectively. Tip to RedFox and other future UMPC players — if you want to offer a better product, offer “better” specs.

    i bought the 10 inch model and installed xp home from my flash drive. believe it or not, it boots up to desktop in less than one minute. it’s much more responsive than the pre-installed linux. this is no joke, i’ll try making a video…

    I have been using a Geode GX400 that runs at 333 mhz and it does all my daily work, even running flash video while I do file management and browsing.

    It’s the software that makes the difference.

    Surprise – I use Puppy Linux! I built a special Puppy for these small laptops and called it “breeezy” (a breeze to install and easy to use).

    Yes, Redfox is a Taiwan-based company. Same as MSI, Acer, HTC and Asus.
