Asus may have grabbed all the headlines in recent weeks with the release of its Eee PC but it’s not the only company to be thinking small as Packard Bell has introduced its own 7-inch notebook.
Packard Bell may not be known as an innovator but it’s taken quite a different stance from Asus with its EasyNote XS20.The 945g device is made from really solid plastic that feels like to the touch.
Sure, it uses a 7-inch panel but the display sits on two rather long legs. This raises the screen to a more natural eye-level, so easier to view, but has actually been put in place to allow for a larger battery cell without it having to stick out. This is a great detail and really adds to the overall design quality.
