Gadget: Le geek, c'est chic

Mabuhay!

First there was the LED TV Series, then there was the Galaxy mobile phone, next was the Galaxy Tab, now, Samsung introduces another "thin" member of the family: The Samsung Notebook 9 Series! It's slimmer than the MacBook Air! Weighing exactly 1.31kg (2.88lbs.), measuring only 16.3mm (0.64inches) in depth, and with a screen size of 13 inches, the Samsung Series 9 (Amor) is the leanest gadget in town!

The Samsung Notebook 9 Series is crafted from duralumin, a lightweight material that is twice as strong as aluminum and normally used in advanced aircraft design. While working on the design for its premium notebook, the Samsung Notebook 9 Series underwent an exhaustive testing process, ensuring the Notebook 9 Series is durable enough for use at home and on the go.

The Samsung Series 9 will be great for traveling. It's light, compact, and powerful.

I want one. There, I said it. Now, the Universe will conspire...it must. Haha!

Scoop: Watch out for Samsung Series 9 launch! I heard designers Randy Ortiz, Rhett Eala, and Rajo Laurel are creating something "Thin, light, and bright" for the event. I'm excited!
