From the popular monitor company comes a nice thin and light called ViewBook Pro. ViewSonic has the full specs up on their webpage but we thought to help you out by posting them here.

ViewSonic ViewBook Pro

  • 13.3″ LED backlit 1280 x 800 display
  • 1.3GHz Intel Core 2 Duo ULV SU7300 with GS45 + ICH9M-SFF enhanced chipset
  • 2GB RAM
  • 320GB HDD
  • Built-in 8x DVD Drive
  • 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
  • 2 x USB, 1.3MP webcam, VGA, HDMI output, multitouch trackpad, card reader, audio jacks, ExpressCard slot
  • 4400mAh 6-cell Li-Ion battery, up to 8 hours battery life
  • Weight: 1.63kg

That’s certainly a lot of features to pack in a ultrathin including the ExpressCard slot and the DVD drive, though I do question the logic of putting in a disc drive inside a portable. Of course, it also packs a punch on the price. Get it from Amazon for US$889.99.

Manli, a European electronics maker, introduces yet another CULV notebook into the fray called the Manli M7. The marketing pitch is that it’s a “multimedia netbook”. Some may argue that it’s an ultralight and not a netbook. Let’s see the specs.

Mani M7

  • 12.1″ 1366 x 768 LED-backlit display
  • 1.3GHz Intel SU4100 CULV with GS45 chipset
  • Intel GMA X4500
  • 2GB DDR3 RAM
  • 320GB HDD
  • Windows 7 Starter or XP
  • 802.11b/g/n WiFi
  • Intel HD Audio, 2W speakers
  • HDMI out
  • 6-cell battery (6 hour battery life)
  • Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR (optional)
  • 3G HSDPA (optional)
  • DVB-T tuner (for TV and radio, optional)
  • 1.48kg

It looks good from the above specs, with the LED-backlight for the LCD and optional TV + radio tuner. The 6-hour battery life is also nice, but I think that’s for normal use and not when viewing video and multimedia. It’ll come in a bunch of colors like lime green and pink, just like the 4GB Eee PC way back when.

If they price this right, it would be a very good buy. No price though a Febrary release was mentioned.
