Netbook Designed After an Aircraft Wing - Kivu G-Five KTNO2

KTNO2-3

You got to love the Kivu G-Five KTNO2 when you see it. It's not like your ordinary 10-inch netbook in terms of form factor. Why? Apparently it was so designed after an aircraft wing. Why is that so? Possibly for air ventillation so as to dissipate heat coming from the netbook. Well, it only says one thing this netbook probably heats up fast.

Here's how Shanzai.com explains how this netbook looks like:

"… the key feature is the teardrop shaped hinge that allows the netbook to open well past 90 degrees, and when closed operates like an aircraft's wing (on which it was modeled) providing lift when it is being carried, thereby reducing the effective weight of the device…"

Specs-wise, it's you usual 10-inch netbook loaded with – 1.6GHz Intel Atom CPU, 1GB of RAM, 160GB HDD, 10.2-inch LCD, 2 USB ports, 3G SIM Slot, Card Reader, RJ45, Bluetooth, 1.3MP camera.
