Acer Aspire One 11.6-inch netbook official: 3G & 8hrs battery

Acer have finally taken the wraps off of their 11.6-inch netbook, the predictably-named Acer Aspire One 11.6.  The subject of numerous photo-leaks over the past months, the 11.6-inch Aspire One packs the usual Intel Atom processor, paired with the Mobile Intel US15W Express Chipset, 160GB hard-drive and WiFi b/g, Bluetooth and 3G connectivity.

All that is packed into a chassis just 2.5cm thick.  Acer also include a soft-touch keyboard, Dolby Pro Logic sound and an LED backlit WXGA display; the whole thing weighs just over one kilo and can run for up to 8hrs on the 6-cell 5,200mAh battery.  We’re not entirely sure which Atom CPU Acer have picked; previous rumors tipped it as the Z530.

Other specs include a webcam, VGA and LAN outputs (that have, as we saw in the early leaks, been pushed back to the hinge section so as to save space), and a multitouch-capable trackpad.  We’re still waiting to hear back on pricing and availability for the Acer Aspire One 11.6-inch.
