reports about a new 13.3" notebook from Gigabyte called W348M:
Hardware wise you're looking at Intel's GM965 chipset with integrated graphics, a choice of Celeron M, Pentium Dual Core and Core Duo or Core 2 Duo processors. The display has a native resolution of 1,280x800. Other features include a built-in optical drive, a selection of WiFi options including 802.11n, two memory slots for up to 4GB of DDR2 667MHz memory and a standard 2.5in hard drive bay.
In terms of connectivity the W348M features a D-sub, three USB 2.0 ports, an Ethernet port, a modem jack, front mounted audio jacks, a front mounted card reader for SD and MS cards and finally an Express Card slot.
The W348M will weigh in at about 2.3kg with the battery, which seems somewhat heavy for a 13.3in notebook and it measures 318x237x37mm (DxWxH) at its thickest part. We have no word on availability, but we'd expect it to launch shortly.
