Berlin - Acer used the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin to present a new laptop that features an extra-long battery life. The Aspire Timeline 1810T offers over eight hours of unplugged operation in an 11.6 inch package, the manufacturer reports. The device is one of a group of computers outfitted with an ultra-low voltage processor that permits a comparably long battery life and a flat construction.
The Timeline 1810T is no more than 30 millimetres thick. The laptop weighs 1.4 kilograms, including the six cell battery, and offers up to 4 gigabytes (GB) of RAM and a 250 GB hard drive. No optical drive is included. The laptop costs 499 dollars.
