Gigabyte M912 UMPC

We showed you the Gigabyte M912 sucker back in June, and it’s now officially launched with a few varying specs. Check out the dets below

* Intel Atom 1.6GHz CPU
* 1GB memory
* 2.5 inch 9.5 mm SATA 120, 160 or 250 GB HDD
* 8.9 inch 1280×768 res WXGA touch screen LCD panel
* 3 USB ports
* 1.3 Mp web cam
* Bluetooth, 802.11b/g wireless connectivity
* 3.5 hours battery life
* OS options of Windows XP, Vista Home Basic or Linux
* Express card slot
* 235 x 180 x 42 mm
* 1.3 kg

Conspicuous by its absence is an internal optical drive but this is offset by a price tag of US$700. Not bad for a tablet PC especially given OS options too. Yeah we like the Netbook-M912V so we give it a big thumbs up!
