Intel blows away the Vaio X505

Intel are demoing a new prototype laptop that is just 0.7in thick, beating the X505 by a whole 0.1in!

More impressive is the screen, built-in wireless (Wifi, WiMAX and cellular (UMTS?)), luminous keyboard and amazing 14 hour battery life.

There’s a very nice review at images.businessweek.com/ss/07/05/0524_metrolaptop/index_01.htm (from where I stole the above photo).  Other nice things are the funky portfolio cover that may include an extra display.

So far there are no specs and I can’t determine if it has an optical drive or not (I hope it doesn’t).  The only place it falls short of the X505 glory is in weight 2.2lbs instead of 1.8!
