Intel, the world’s leading chipmaker has partnered with design firm Ziba to create the World’s thinnest Laptop ever. While this Razr of Laptops sure looks thin, this Laptop is packed with enough features to make it the #1 object of desire for every geek out there.

Some Features of the World’s Thinnest Notebook

1. Laptop Size:

Since we are talking thin, let’s talk about size first. Ziba and Intel managed to make this laptop just o.7″ thick. Think about it.  The width of a Razr is 0.54″ thick. How did Intel manage this? Well for starters they removed the standard hard drive and replaced it with flash memory. Flash memory is way faster than a hard disk drive. I run Windows Vista off my 4GB flash drive and my performance is 33% better than running Vista of a hard drive. Your applications would run faster. Another side benefit of flash memory. Your Laptop consumes less power. Intel is reporting that this new Laptop can run upto 14 hours on a Battery. That is almost equivalent to my iPod battery life ! Oh and the Laptop weights just 2.25 pounds

2. Laptop Features:

a. Laptop Screen: Unlike traditional Laptop screens which are boxed in, which looks encased in, photo frame like, this Laptop’s screen extends to the very edges and looks like a high end plasma TV screen. The screen contains light sensors which adjusts the screen brightness automatically and also has an in-built video camera

b. Keyboard: Normally, a keyboard is nothing to brag about, but this is different. The Laptop is completely smooth except for slight grooves between keys. The keys are marked with a futuristic red font and they glow in the dark

c. Laptop Cover: How about this. The laptop cover has a mini screen outside just like a Razr where you can check your email or anything without opening your laptop. How about a Picture instead just like your cell phone wallpaper. This special folio looks like a fashionable diary which you can also plug into an electrical outlet. So, it can also double up as a wireless charger for your Laptop and other devices.

d. Laptop Strap: While I don’t fancy myself or any other guys doing this, for females, the Laptop comes with a nice strap in different colors, designed to appeal to different groups.

The laptop is coming with WiMax, the better and faster cousin of WiFi. More secure, faster and better. The laptop is to be sold by a yet unnamed manufacturer and is coming to your favorite store this fall, yes people Fall 07. Until then oogle !!
