ViewSonic’s new ViewBook netbook is a 10-inch machine running the Intel Atom, and is expected to ship soon at around $349.
A new 13.3″ laptop is also on the way from ViewSonic, using an Intel CULV chip and shipping at $899. Both the Viewbook netbook and the new laptop are designed by an outside firm that’s done work on ViewSonic displays before.
ViewSonic VP/GM Jeff Volpe explained that the new netbook and notebook will offset depressing sales figures in the display market in recent months. ViewSonic’s recently announced e-Reader is expected to make a dent as well.
