Mobinnova Elan to wear on Mobinnova BeamATT branding
Category: new notebook modelsBy: Raghav Kapoor
AT&T might just end up selling this Nvidia Tegra based machine
Mobinnova Elan, now rebranded as the Mobinnova Beam, will be coming out from its hiding during CES 2010, which is will be held in the month of January (Jan 7 – Jan 10).
The Tegra-based machine is a 10 inch mini-laptop. It also houses NVIDIA graphics which will enable 720p HD video playback with accelerated Flash content and some 3D games. Added features would be a 3G connection like the élan, along with a Wi-Fi radio. A webcam should also make a mark there.
It was recently found carrying an FCC ID - the BEAMATT which makes us believe that there is quite a possibility that AT&T will be the distributor for this portable computer.
Powering the device is a powerful battery pack which is expected to offer a great battery life of about 5-10 hours while playing 720p videos that seems good enough but, there is one major drawback - It uses Windows CE as the OS which might not attract a lot of people as many of us just love Windows powered devices.
There is no word on the pricing yet but if AT&T launches this new netbook then I am quite sure that this netbook will cost you less than $300 off course that is when you sign a contract with AT&T.
