Nano notebook design sports Mobile WiMAX
Via announced a Linux-compatible notebook reference design that packs a 1.3GHz Nano processor along with optional Mobile WiMAX, GPS, and cellular connectivity. The "eNote Turnkey Solution" has an 11.6-inch display, 2-megapixel camera, and up to 2GB of DDR2, says Via, which also announced it has joined the Linux Foundation.
The latest in a series of notebook reference designs from Via, the eNote Turnkey Solution is apparently intended to be rebadged by third parties, or perhaps sold by cellular carriers direct to their customers. Via refers to the design as being "a thin and light notebook that strikes the perfect balance between netbook ultra-portability and notebook performance."
The eNote's most notable feature is the availability of a Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) chip from Sequans, the SQN1130. Sequans touts this SoC (system-on-chip) as "the industry's lowest power, highest throughput chip solution for WiMAX mobile stations."
