Built for heavy usage, the ASUS N20A comes with a 12.1″ monitor. Equipped with an Altec Lansing sound system that provides excellent sound clarity, plus a highly efficient eSATA hard disk drive housed in a dust and moisture-resistant enclosure, the N20A is a versatile road performer for business and personal entertainment. Asustek has unveiled details of the ASUS N20A, a new 12.1-inch ultraportable laptop with Intel Centrino 2 technology. Starting at around 4 pounds, the N20A features the latest Intel Core 2 Duo normal-voltage processor (T9400, P8600, P7350, T5800, or T5850), GMA X4500HD integrated graphics, up to 4GB of DDR2 memory, up to 320GB of hard drive space, and a DVD burner. The display has a resolution of 1280-by-800 pixels.

The Windows Vista-powered notebook includes a 1.3-megapixel web camera, 802.11n wireless and optional Bluetooth, a Gigabit LAN port, and optional support for 3G/3.5G mobile broadband. There are also HDMI and VGA outputs, three USB ports, an ExpressCard slot, eSATA port, 8-in-1 media card reader, and the Trusted Platform Module 1.2 in select models. No official word on a price just yet, but at least one retailer already has a Core 2 Duo T5800-based model available for $999.
