According to sources, second-tier Taiwan-based motherboard and PC maker Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) will launch a US$599 notebook in March or April.
The notebook, equipped with Transmeta’s Crusoe CPU, will command the lowest price in the market to date, sources said. Unlike ECS’s DeskNote mobile PCs, the low-price notebook will come with a battery.
ECS’s DeskNote A907, released last December, is currently priced at around US$600-700.
