Shuttle has just announced two new small form factor PCs equipped with Via’s Nano processors. These are the Shuttle XS92 and XS29F, which are expected to be showcased next week during Computex in Taipei, Taiwan. The Shuttle XS92 SFF will feature VIA’s Nano L CPUs while the Shuttle XS29F SFF PC will have VIA’s Nano U line of CPUs to be more power efficient, not needing any internal fans because of low thermal output. Not much else have been revealed about these SFF PCs at the moment, but expect to learn more about them in June at Computex.

VIA sources have indicated that they and Nvidia have suspended the deal that was set up in April this year, to work on a platform for netbooks and MID’s together.

This was to be a another ‘cooperation’ between the two companies that are already working together to build desktop PC components, that could have seen the VIA C7 and Nano processors paired with MCP79 IGP chipsets which could have seen the two companies become a bigger ‘player’ in the netbook phenomenon.

VIA is trying to get back on the mini laptop market with new OpenBook model. This lappie features 8.9 inch screen with resolution, and based on VIA VX800 chipset running C7-M ULV processor, 2GB of RAM and a 2.5-inch HDD.

OpenBook also include WiMAX, HSDPA and EV-DA, three USB 2.0 ports, VGA out, a 4-in-1 card reader and front and back 2 MP web-cameras. You can easily run Windows Vista or your favorite Linux flavor.
