That looks awesome for a netbook, shame it isn't using a ION gpu though. I have no idea who would pick an ipad over this...

ION, oh yes ... its coming, its coming ... 
But better yet, ION2

[Dark Mantis]

The ION2 is already out in the states, there are several different models now available. eg: Shuttle X350 mini PC with dual-core Atom D510 and NVIDIA ION 2 now available in the US. So how long before we can see them over here? I know that this isn't a netbook but there are others.

[RuiPereira]

We looking at releasing the ION2 solutions in the next 2~3 months, we may not be the first to release ION2 solution, but our product will be excellent

But of course, it goes without saying

Ah...... Self praise is no recommendation as my old Mum always says! 

[RuiPereira]

LOL - Ah, but a good old pat in the back always goes a long way…

I have a few questions about battery life for the T100 family:

1. What battery life does Gigabyte expect to see from these devices?
2. What sort of battery life have people experienced on them so far?
3. Can they hot-swap batteries, have larger batteries installed, etc?

1. What battery life does Gigabyte expect to see from these devices?
2. What sort of battery life have people experienced on them so far?
A difficult question because it depends on so many factors such as Wireless / Bluetooth / 3G / brightness of your screen etc…
T1000 series using a Li-ion 6-cell, 7650mAh battery can give 5~8 hours of battery life.

3. Can they hot-swap batteries, have larger batteries installed, etc?Our batteries can be removed and currently the Li-ion 6-cell (7650mAh) battery is the biggest battery we can offer for this unit.
You can have more than one battery

I hope this helps

Hi RuiPereira regarding the question about "hot swapping" batteries I take it I would be right in assuming that isn't possible?

[foomta]

Thanks RuiPereira for your help. I agree battery life is a tricky thing to measure - one in "your mileage may vary" considerably.

@ DarkMantis - My understanding from the local supplier is that hot swapping is not possible. You would need to do something like hibernate, swap batteries and restore.

Thanks both.

[Dark Mantis]

Yes that would go along with my reasoning. Thanks.
