Atom will knock the socks off it, performance and performance/watt wise (encryption tasks aside).  On the other hand, Via's new Nano/Isaih processor should be landing soon and should completely wreck Atom on the performance and performance/watt measures.  But, imo, the Wind is a dud for using such a poor processor (it was slow way back in 2005).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rektide]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[MSI Wind uses the Atom CPU according to all others in the world, so you are wrong.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[My company is looking to buy 400+ lappys with these specs: touchscreen, long battery life, mobile broadband, portability (light).

But the best reasonably priced tablet is the HP tx2500z, it's even decent at gaming. On the other hand, it does get a little hot and battery life isn't great even with the 8 cell battery, so I think you might want to go with Thinkpad tablets instead, although those will cost you a fair bit more.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[iofthestorm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 2:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[...yay!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sheepman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 4:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[Is it just me or is anyone else getting a stormtrooper vibe off that design??]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nebulus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[yes, all left to do is to get a stormstrooper to present it, instead of hot asian chicks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[initialxy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 7:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think robo-Bjork would screw it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zeek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 11:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[NICE]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[^]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[dame, my avater didnt appair,<br>once again engadgets dated comment system fails<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[^]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[Its showing now.

My ECS G732 was nothing but a design disaster. The "desktop replacement" featured a 3.06 GHz Pentium 4 desktop processor. Even with a fan that sounded like a dust-buster vacuum cleaner, the computer ran hotter than hell. My power jack melted in less than a year, I went through at least 5 sticks of RAM in 2.5 years, and my hard drive died after 2.5 years. An under-the-laptop cooling device was of little help. It stopped being my primary laptop after 4 months, with only minor usage after. My college roommates urged me to turn the thing off when I left the room for even the shortest length of time because of the perceived fire hazard. The laptop's microphone was cleverly placed - so close to the speakers that turning the mic on under even very low speaker volume resulted in pitchy feedback. Battery degradation was also far worse than my Toshiba laptop, probably because ECS probably used cheaper than dirt batteries to drive cost down. Maybe ECS changed its tune, fired its designers and thermal engineers, and brought up quality control since then, but it's a gamble not worth taking (for any amount of money). If you're after a low priced mini-laptop, go with a quality name. You WILL thank yourself. Sorry for the rant, but I don't want to see anybody else get nailed by ECS.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 10:19AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was thinking Space 1999 when I first saw it, but then it struck me, 2001: A space odyssey]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 10:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was thinking SPACE 1999 when I first saw it, but then it struck me 2010 Space Odyssey]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 11:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ECS G10IL: Stateside September for $399]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/ecs-g10il-stateside-september-for-399/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anyone read whether it'll have a display with LED backlight?
