ASUS takes own turn with WiMAX notebooks |
Joining with Acer, Lenovo and Toshiba, ASUS on Wednesday became the latest to unveil its first notebooks specifically capable of using Sprint's new Xohm service. The 14.1-inch F8Va-C2WM is billed as the true mobile WiMAX system of the collection but carries a comparatively high-end 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB of RAM and a 320GB hard drive that amount to a $1,599 price point.The 15.4-inch M50Vm and equally sized N50Vn both put the emphasis more on media playback. The two step down to a 2.26GHz Core 2 Duo but respond with dedicated GeForce 9600M-level video that improves their performance for HD movies and 3D games. Either carries 4GB of RAM but swaps out the hard drive for a 250GB model that helps lower the overall price to $1,399 for each system. F8Va-C2WM |
