iiView A2 Macbook Air Clone hitting US shortly

It will cost about $399

It is almost two months since the iiView A² was announced. This Macbook Air look-alike is now announced in the US and told to be going in the market on 22^nd October.

Although not like the Macbook Air in performance, it still has the Ooomph factor. Sporting a gorgeous 12.1” display panel. The A2 has a 12.1” (1,280 x 800) display panel powered by a 1.6GHz N270 Atom CPU and Intel 945 chipset. You’ll get a 2GB RAM and a 320GB HDD as well as Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and 2 USB ports, and also HDMI output. The 78-key keyboard looks comfortable to type, with the Elantech Solid-state Trackpad below it. The release date coincides with that of Windows 7 to include the same – so you get the Windows 7 Home Premium pre-loaded. The battery is designed to run for a meager up to 3 hours.

The one thing that’ll set the A2 apart from the rest is the slim, streamlined style – and an effortless HD playback. The pre-installed Windows 7 helped. The matte non-reflective screen and the matte finish on the inside will make sure it doesnot attract greases and dirt.

It is retailing at $399 and comes with 2 year warranty.
