EPIA M - the official announcement November 26, 2002
VIA have announced the EPIA M-Series Mini-ITX mainboards in no uncertain terms. Worlds have apparently collided to make this possible. To regular readers of this site, the impressive specifications will be nothing new. In brief though, they feature the DVD playback boosting Apollo CLE266 chipset, six channel audio, USB 2.0 and Firewire, all in a 170 x 170mm package. You can sign up for one as soon as we get them here - particularly useful if you live in the UK or Europe. Production should be ramping up in mid-December, so they'll be thin on the ground initially. Hint: Check if your online store actually has them available, or has them available for 'pre-order'. We expect the first ones to arrive on people's doorsteps in about a week. We've got ours, and are giving it a thorough testing for you.
*Advert* Help us pay for our bandwidth! *Advert* You can buy most of this stuff from the Mini-ITX.com Online Store. We serve the UK, Europe, USA and beyond. If you order before 7.30PM GMT and your items are in stock, we'll ship same day!
