Hmmm... This is also in the cooking for heavily rumored Mac Subnotebook - or I call it MiniBook. This gave a strong sign that the rumor may come to reality. Intel is targeting end of the year, so I guess Apple will launch it ahead. I would say September 2007 the latest?
Businessweek profiles "Metro" -- a prototype laptop designed by Intel and Ziba Design. The 0.7 inch thick laptop is the world's thinnest notebook and weighs only 2.25 pounds.
To achieve its small size, the laptop uses flash memory in place of a standard hard drive. This addition also improves battery life up to 14 hours. Also included is wireless connectivity with options for cellular, Wi-Fi or WiMax networks, fingerprint reader, noise canceling technology, and more. "Price was not a concern" for the design.
