CHIP FIRM Via is showing an 850 gram Nanobook reference design with a seven inch screen and overall measurements of 230mm by 161mm by 29.4mm.

The machine supports both Windows XP and Vista, and includes up to 1GB DDR2 memory, a 30GB or 60GB hard drive, a four in one card reader as well as support for 802.11g, Bluetooth and Internet. It also has microphone and speaker ports, two USB ports and a USB slot. It said a number of OEMs will produce versions of the design in the second half of this year.

alt='nanobook'The processor running the whole show is a 1.20GHz C7M with ultra low voltage, while it includes a VX700 chipet and Unichrome graphics. It looks a lot like this picture, and we've touched it and held it - it's real enough.

And probably a year ahead of Intel reference designs, we'd guess. µ

Do you think the move was justified?
