Everex Systems will launch a new mini-laptop with a 10.2-inch screen in November, the company's Taiwan partner said.
The company will also launch new 8.9-inch mini-laptops by the end of August, along with a model with WiMax wireless Internet
capability in September.
Everex is an affiliate of First International Computer (FIC), the Taiwanese contract manufacturer of its mini-laptops. Everex's
CloudBook, for example, is made by FIC.
FIC officials said they're on track to ensure Everex starts shipping a new mini-notebook with a 10.2-inch LCD screen and 3G
wireless connection capabilities on board and an option for WiMax wireless. The idea for the devices is that since they're
made for mobile Internet surfing, they should have the maximum capability to utilize all possible wireless connections.

Since it has a 3G option -- HSDPA and HSUPA (High Speed Downlink/Uplink Packet Access) -- the laptop can be bundled with a
3G contract from a service provider. Mini-laptops with the WiMax option could be sold by companies building WiMax networks.
The laptop comes with Wi-Fi connectivity already built in, 802.11b/g.
The new mini-notebook can run either a Windows XP or Linux OS and use either a 1.6GHz Intel Atom microprocessor or a similar
processor from Via Technologies, according to FIC representatives. The device can hold up to 2GB of DRAM, and it comes with
a 1.3-megapixel Web cam and either a four- or six-cell battery. In addition, it hosts two USB ports, an express card slot,
and 4-in-1 card reader.

Both laptops can run either Microsoft Windows XP or a Linux OS. Their LCD screens are similar to the 10.2-inch model, with
1,024x600 resolution. They come with either four- or six-cell lithium-ion batteries. The six-cell batteries can run for seven
to eight hours before needing a recharge.
