We were intrigued by VIA's NanoBook, as we reported during COMPUTEX 2007. Seemingly, Packard Bell feels the same way - it's decided to own-brand the product within its EasyNote range.
The svelte XS10 weighs in at under 950g and has much the same features as VIA's showing - a 7in (800x400) LCD screen, a low-wattage VIA C7-M processor, DVI-out, WiFi, a four-in-one card-reader, a 30GiB hard drive and Windows XP Home. The XS10 also carries an integrated webcam in its MobilityPLUS interchangeable module.
We expect retail pricing to be around £350 and reckon that the UMD platform certainly has promise.
