Acer Timeline Series Boasts 8-Hour Battery Life

by Chloe Albanesius

Acer on Tuesday introduced its new TravelMate Timeline series of ultra-thin notebooks intended for business customers.

The three versions of the device – the 8571, 8471, and 8371 – include 6-cell batteries that promise up to eight hours of power when the Acer PowerSmart Manager is enabled.

The main difference between the three notebooks is screen size – users can select a 13.3- inch, 14.1-inch, or 15.6-inch screen. There is also the option to select 3GB or 4GB of RAM, a 1.3GHz or 1.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, and a 320GB or 250GB hard drive.

All the machines come with 32-bit Windows 7 Professional pre-installed, though Acer will also include a Windows XP Professional CD as well.

They also include an Acer Crystal Eye webcam; three USB 2.0 ports; an HDMI port; a 5-in-1 card reader; a multi-gesture touchpad pointing device supporting circular-motion scrolling, pinch-action zoom, and page flip; and 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N WLAN, Bluetooth, gigabit LAN.

They all weigh in at 3.5 lbs.

The 15.6-inch and 14.1-inch laptops with a 1.4GHz processor and a 320GB SATA hard drive will run you $999, while the 13.3-inch 8371 with a 320GB hard drive costs $919. The 15.6-inch and 14.1-inch versions with a 250GB hard drive are retailing for $899.

They are available now through all Acer re-sellers.

I have had mine for almost 3 weeks and absolutly LOVE it. My hair is naturally curly and super frizzy especially on humid days-I live in the south so we have a lot of

humid days. This iron with the use of Chi silk serum keeps my hair frizz free even on humid days. My hair is really thick too but it only takes me 15 minutes to straighten it. It takes me longer now to blow

dry it than it does to straighten my hair. I will never own another flat iron. This one is AMAZING!!
