[/img]Don't call it a netbook, capiche? Gateway has just outed a new
11.6-incher over in Japan, with the EC19C-A52C/S boasting some of the
most impressive specifications we've seen in a unit this compact. A
1.33GHz dual-core Core i5-470UM processor sits at the heart of this
here lappie, and it's accompanied by a 320GB hard drive, 1366 x 768
resolution display, 2GB of RAM, HDMI / VGA outputs, an inbuilt
Ethernet port and a six-cell battery that should last half a dozen
hours (on a good day). As expected, you'll also find a 1.3 megapixel
webcam, 4-in-1 card reader, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Windows 7 Home Premium
(64-bit) and Bluetooth 3.0 (a nice touch, we'll confess), with sales
expected to start right about now in the Land of the Rising Sun. As
for pricing? Try ¥65,000, or right around $775. Told you it didn't
quite fit the netbook category.
