iiView – the Singapore-based company has produced a mini laptop, called the A2, which looks pretty much alike the super thin and light MacBook Air. On the inside, the iiView A2 is just an average netbook, with extra RAM and hard drive storage space. And little worth to mention, it’s dropped the Windows XP, it’s either to run the Windows 7 RC1 or Windows Vista.
The iiView A2 is stuffed with a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, 2GB RAM, a 320GB HDD, and with a screen that measures 12.1 inch and boasts 1280 x 800 of resolution. The A2 also packs with a 6-cell battery, a HDMI port which allows you to hook up to larger HD display for playback of HD video. But the A2 netbook has got only the Intel GMA950 graphics, which is not one known capable of handling HD video with ease.
The iiView A2 also comes with monitor and USB ports but in flip-out style, follows what the MacBook Air has, hidden, to save space for keeping it slim and sleek looking. The iiView A2 is priced around US$467.78, which should be affordable to most people.
