Two MiniITX A1's models are on the way, both G3. The first one is very similar to the "beta" versions that was sold earlier. The price for this one will be $600USD/500EUR, excluding VAT. The other version will also offer some more features such as Firewire, Gigabit Ethernet and an additional (custom?) PCI connector, and will cost $700USD/600EUR.

Two new µ-A1's models on the way : Comment 165 of 170 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 01-Sep-2004 09:52 GMT | In reply to Comment 155 (Jupp3): > And many of those (soundcard, TV tuner, CD/HD drives, modems etc.) can be connected to other ports aswell (Which I'd say is a better solution anyway)
That makes no sense unless you count the PCI option as "port". Because USB 1.x and the few legacy ports are hardly adequate for most of the hardware that was mentioned.
> Wrong. USB1.1 can take most (all?) of the same devices
There is a difference between can take and makes sense. USB 1.x is very slow, it peaks out at 1 MB/second or so in real life tests (12 MBps theoretically). Good enough for HID devices but beyond that? USB 2.0 is spec'ed at 480 MBps. Not as good as Firewire, I'm told, but still a world of a difference. |
