Weighing 780 grams, M704’s 7” LCD touch screen is capable of displaying a resolution of up to 1024X600, rendering full screen web pages in the palm of your hands. The M704 inherited the simple, elegant exterior design of GIGABYTE’s U60 series and it comes with a 1.3mega pixel video camera with an easy-to-use snapshot button for enhanced image capturing convenience. Users with hands-on experience with the M704 felt that, compared to GIGABYTE’s U60, the M704 offers more comprehensive functionalities while displaying a more appealing and mature exterior design.

GIGABYTE’s M700 also features a GPS navigation system and all new, touch screen input control mode to offer consumers diverse operation with remarkable multimedia functionalities. Experience unlimited opportunities and the convenience that cutting-edge technology has to offer.
As for its notebook PC lineup, GIGABYTE has unveiled its concept prototypes for W457V (14.1”) and W583V (15.4”) in the 2008 CeBIT. Both models come in four different designs and feature eSATA/USB combo along with the next-generation HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface). In addition, both models feature GIGABYTE’s Imprint technology in their exterior design, making them truly powerful notebook computers with fashionable appearances. On a related note, the majority of female participants indicated their preference for the dreamy, wavy pattern, while most male participants liked the diamond Chidori pattern the better out of the four designs. This discovery should serve as a useful suggestion for product designs in the future.
The 2008 Computex event scheduled for June is the next major tradeshow that GIGABYTE will take part in, and the company plans to launch its latest INTEL mobile computing platform 8.9” low cost NB and newest members in the Montevina series. For a change, this year’s Computex event will be hosted at the Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Halls, which officially opened in March. The new venue promises even better software/hardware equipment and utilities. So stay tuned!
