Anyway, as of now I really can't produce even initial specs although what I am thinking is a max cpu speed of 1.4GHz adjustable down to 600MHz (I believe the P-M can do that not sure about the P4), System bus around 200-400MHz, Memory- whatever module you pick, video ram- either a minimum of 8 meg on board or it would be designed to use system ram. The system, memory, ata, sata, pcmcia controller would probably be a PGA system so completely upgradable. I think as far as price--a person could expect to pay about 300 for the board (just guessing here but about 3-5 times what a desktop motherboard runs.), 250 for cpu, 100 for 1 gig memory module . Price really depends on what ICs and bios used. Battery life--should be about the same as you have now -3-4 hours. Might even be a little better.

John,
Sounds good! However I too think 200 will be a big challenge and of course this is heavily dependant on costs.
I love my little Libretto, but sometimes wish it was a little faster and had USB on board (still can't get my USB2.0 pccard to work).
Please keep us updated!
Regards, Wouter
