ECS G10IL; An ultra-portable to give the Eee a run for its money

The ultra-portable ECS G10IL

We are always seeing the “killer” device, in this case it is the next supposed Eee PC killer, but this ultra-portable may actually give the Eee a decent amount of competition.

Aside from a slightly poor name, the G10IL from ECS seems to be all business in the specs department. The G10IL features a built-in HSDPA 7.2 datacard, built-in webcam and has three USB ports, an Ethernet jack and strangely a built-in 56k modem.

Similar to other ultra-portables, the optical drive has been left out. The listed specs made no mention of Bluetooth, which would not be that much of a surprise if left out, however there was also not any mention of Wi-Fi, which considering it has built-in HSDPA would be very strange to leave out. Official confirmation with more “firm” details are still coming from ECS. The G10IL is currently still in production but is expected to retail for £250 or just under $500 US.
