SHARP DEBUTS LCD TRACKPAD ON MEBIUS PC-NJ70A

If I had not just purchased a laptop, I would have held out for this one. But seeing that its not planning to hit the U.S anytime soon, I guess its all in good taste.

SHARP MEBIUS PC-NJ70A NETBOOK

With more and more netbooks popping up in the market each day there is an imminent threat of identity crisis as one looks like a clone of the other, but not with the new Sharp Mebius PC-NJ70A. Sharp’s new netbook sports a dazzling secondary display on the trackpad. Yes! We have seen a few dual display screens but nothing like this. Sharp has doubled its trackpad as a secondary LCD display with resolution of 854 x 480. This innovative 4-inch touchscreen trackpad/display can automatically adjust to brightness and you can also browse files with it. It can also be used as a game controller and as an application launcher.

Apart from this the Sharp Mebius PC-NJ70A has ubiquitous features like the 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB hard drive, Ethernet, WiFi, BlueTooth 2.1+EDR , multiformat memory card reader, VGA, audio in/out, 3 USB ports and weighs 1.46Kg. The regular display measures 10.1 inch with resolution of 1024 x 600. The whole system measures 260 x 190 x 23.3-39.8mm and promises up to 3 hours of run time with a standard battery.

The Mebius PC-NJ70A is currently available in Japan for about 80,000 yen and is rumored to arrive in the U.S through Dynamism for about $999!
