Gigabyte posts specs for ThinNote S1024 and Booktop M1022

It's all coming together, folks. Merely hours after Gigabyte hosted up a product portal for its T1028 TouchNote, the same occurrence has just went down for the ThinNote S1024 and Booktop M1022. Both rigs were initially introduced last month at CeBIT, and now you can pretty much bank on 'em shipping stateside within the next little while. As for the M1022, you'll find it bundled with a vertical docking station and packing an N270 or N280 processor, Windows XP Home, 1GB of RAM, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, WiFi, optional WiMAX / HSDPA and a 6-cell battery. The S1024 netbook contains most of the same hardware, but you'll have to handcraft your own stand if that you're thing.

I'm not a big fan of nettops/netbooks/anything with an Atom cpu in general. But that docking station is a really nice idea.

[Gordon Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:21PM]

I agree completely. I'd love a similar docking station for my laptop.

[Flaystus Posted Apr 7th 2009 1:00PM]

It is intriguing.

What ports/funtion does the dock have?

grammar fail

[PhoenixFox Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:14PM]

That should be "your", not "you're". The latter is "you are". you're not trying to say "if that is you are thing", now are you?

[PhoenixFox Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:15PM]

actually, you're missing either a "is" or a " 's" after the that as well...

Sloppy.

you're missing an n in your a

I'm more offended by "...the same occurrence has just went down..."

[chispito Posted Apr 7th 2009 2:06PM]

@Paul

"the same occurrence has just went down" The only way I can make this sound right in my head is if I use a Cletus voice.

Oh look, a wireless router turn into a netbook!

[superhobo Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:40PM]

I think it's English. Not sure though.

[omegahelix Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:51PM]

Ditch the Windows tax on the M1022 and give me a bit more vertical screen resolution on the S1024 and I'd be tempted, otherwise the holding pattern for ION continues...

[Flaystus Posted Apr 7th 2009 1:01PM]

Yes. Must have ION.

[reiththestud Posted Apr 7th 2009 5:14PM]

More ION and Multitouch-ness please!

[Chickenatr Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:55PM]

a nice concept though (the dock).

[(Unverified) Posted Apr 7th 2009 12:57PM]

Me likey.

[(Unverified) Posted Apr 7th 2009 1:29PM]

grow up guys...

[Eric H Posted Apr 7th 2009 1:30PM]

I would love a dock like this with on of the new touchscreen netbooks, if it ever comes out.

[(Unverified) Posted Apr 7th 2009 10:04PM]

i want it.

So 5 years later Gigabyte releases the Sharp MM20! Now that's progress.
