Hands-on with the Voodoo Envy 133
Oct 5th
Laptop mag have been lucky enough to get their hands on a production model of the innovative Voodoo Envy 133 ultra portable notebook.
As expected the Voodoo packs some punch and the Envy that Laptop Mag received was bundled with an E-SATA optical drive, a multi-touch touchpad, an HDMI to VGA adapter and a unique power brick which can also be used as a wireless access point. There are even light sensors which sense when your hands are on unit.
Impressive specs, that come at a price of course and at $2000 it isn’t a low price but, is it worth it? Well, it certainly looks like it could be, judging from the video Laptop Mag took of it.
