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.

ANOTHER COMPETITOR IN NETBOOK WORLD - SHARP

So here is something new in this hot market of Netbooks. A very well known brand is now joining the competition of netbooks. Yes, it is Sharp. Sharp has declared the launch of their Mebius netbooks by the next week in Japan. Sharp is set to start some teaser shots of this very first netbook. Though we are not able to get a view of this new venture from Sharp but it is promised to be a desired one from the brand, especially after the launch of media centre NEC which didn’t come out to be good.

So here is a new competitor for the existing giants of the market of Netbooks. Sharp has proved itself several times with different electronic products, both in style and innovation. Sharp has also started to send out invitation to different Japanese tech journos about this unveiling of new Sharp Mebius netbooks. Sharp is set to start their marketing and promos will be coming up by next week. This new essence of Sharp has already set fire among the prevailing dealers of this field.

Nothing as such has been revealed about the Mebius Netbooks, the logo has been revealed with embossed lid aside and is seemed to be a thick one with a pink bubble at the side saying “You will change - The Mebius will change”.

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!
