Mention the word Coby and you probably won’t find anyone who knows that it’s an electronics brand. But apart from selling mp3 players and portable DVD players, Coby apparently also entered the laptop market. The manufacturer actually opened a booth at the CES showroom showcasing its notebook product.
The NBPC892 is the company’s netbook product that features an 8.9 ich screen, an Intel Atom N270 and a large 160 or 500GB hard drive. The Coby netbook can run either XP or Linux and has 1 to 2GB of RAM. It even has a built in 1.3 megapixel webcam.
No price has been set yet for this product but I’d be more concerned about support and durability from Coby.
