Acer Aspire One 571, Blu-ray Enabled Netbook

Acer Aspire One 571 netbook is surprisingly using Vmedia’s 32-mm media format that allow play Blu-ray disc. In order to properly play HD video on the 10-inch screen (1280 x 720), the 1.66-GHz Atom CPU must be paired with Quartics’ Q1721 Multimedia Coprocessor. With that combination, both the encoding and decoding of H.264 and other HD formats (up to 1080p) is enable.

Acer’s spokeperson said that there aren’t any immediate plans to release the Aspire One 571. Well, the question is, do you desire watch HD video on a 10-inch netbook?
