HCL Infosystems, serious about introducing the latest in technology at the best possible price, has today unveiled its "MiLeap" ultra portable laptops for prices starting below Rs 14,000.
Both 'X' and 'Y' series of "MiLeap" laptops (also called leaptops) are ultra portable yet fully functional, claims HCL.
They all sport a sleek and light-weight form factor, making it convenient to ferry them around any place. According to HCL, the leaptops offer full PC functionality along with a true mobile Internet experience.
The 'X' Series "MiLeap" laptops are available with both flash-based and disk-based storage. Their sturdy design makes them dust- and shock- proof. Among others, the leaptops are Wi-Fi ready, and feature network ports and an option for data card. They are available with GUI-enabled, user-friendly Linux operating system (OS).
The 'X' Series "MiLeap" laptops are priced, starting at Rs 13,990.
The other series launched by HCL, the 'Y' Series, has laptops powered by the latest Intel Ultra Mobile Platform (Intel processor A110 and Intel 945GU Express Chipset). They feature Microsoft's Vista Home Premium OS, a swivel seven touch-screen cum note pad, an 80GB HDD, wireless connectivity, data card option, Blue-tooth, and Ethernet network port, among others.
These leaptops sport multiple navigation features, including touch- screen, thumboard, stylus, keyboard, mouse, and one-touch buttons.
The 'Y' Series "MiLeap" laptops are priced, starting at Rs 33,990.
Speaking at the launch, Ajai Chowdhry, chairman and chief executive officer of HCL Infosystems, said their revolutionary new range of ultra portable 'MiLeap' leaptops would herald a new category of computing devices, opening up a wide range of new usage scenarios and application areas.
Both 'X' and 'Y' Series leaptops are fully RoHS-compliant, and have a low energy footprint. HCL said both series of leaptops will start shipping on Jan 26, 2008, to coincide with Republic Day celebrations.
