Gateway goes high-def with the stylish EC13N

-

MANILA, Philippines - Gateway has announced an ultra-slim, ultra-lightweight netbook that is capable of providing smooth, high-definition entertainment and designed for fun-loving and outgoing users who want extended social networking fun.

Gateway’s stylish new EC13N, which has an 0.98-inch profile and which weighs 1.35 kg (with a six-cell battery pack), is a smooth and easy-to-use multimedia powerhouse equipped with an AMD Athlon II Neo dual-core processor K325 (2MB L2 Cache, 1.30GHz, 800MHz FSB, 12W), Genuine Windows 7 Home Basic edition as its operating software, and a 320GB hard drive.

It also features the performance-enhancing ATI Radeon HD 4225 graphics card with 384MB of dedicated system memory, as well as a dazzling 11.6-inch Gateway Ultrabright TFT-LCD screen for presenting high-definition entertainment and media playback with unrivaled visual quality. 

The screen is also LED-backlit, with a 1366 x 768 and 200-nit, high-brightness display. Playback is supported by an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) that makes it possible for users to experience smooth, high-definition viewing and high-fidelity audio on a full range of peripherals.

With models available in velvet blue, cashmere red, and silk silver, finished in smudge-resistant matte, the Gateway EC13N sets new style trends that demonstrate Gateway’s innovations in design, functionality, and usability.

A full-sized keyboard offers accurate and comfortable typing, while an instinctive multi-gesture touchpad, which customers can use to pinch, rotate, scroll or flip, provides convenience and ease of access that prior-generation netbooks do not have.

To deliver extended performance, uninterrupted fun and work, energy efficiency, and enhanced on-the-go productivity, the Energy Star-rated Gateway EC13N comes with a 63 W six-cell Li-ion battery pack that has up to seven hours of battery life. Its integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.0 capabilities, meanwhile, offer instant connectivity on demand. 

The Gateway EC13N comes with a dedicated one-touch hotkey for social networking, so that users can keep up-to-date with their networks and respond instantly to the latest news and posts. The hotkey launches a smart integrated interface that provides a single log-in for users to connect to three of today’s most popular social networking sites: Facebook, YouTube, and Flickr. Complementing this unique feature is a high-resolution webcam with a built-in microphone, which also makes the Gateway EC13N an ideal videoconferencing or online collaboration tool.

Mobile entertainment means something entirely different today than it did just a few short years ago. More often it comes in the form of video clips, photos, and updates on fan pages or on friends’ networks at particular social media sites.

The Gateway EC13N netbook is designed to let customers have quick access to their entertainment and social networks with easy-to-use technology, high-definition capability, and user-friendly design features.

The Gateway EC13N isn’t just for fun. For business and professional users who want to enhance their mobile productivity, the netbook (which is smaller and more compact than an A4-sized magazine) provides 2GB of DDR3 memory, three USB 2.0 ports, and a built-in Multi-1 card reader that accepts stored data from Secure Digital and Multimedia Cards to Memory Stick Pro and xD cards.

Moreover, the EC13N also incorporates the Gateway Recovery Management software for making sure that all-important data are safe and secure as one travels everywhere, and effortlessly, with the perfect multimedia and social networking companion.
