Shuttle Alliance with big plans for notebooks

Just before CES I posted news that Shuttle were going to announce an Alliance of second tier hardware manufacturers, who would work together to increase their overall netbook market share. That alliance has now been announced as the Shuttle New Notebook Ecosystem.

"Shuttle revealed more members of its alliance at CES 2010 including CPU makers AMD and VIA Technologies, keyboard maker Chicony Electronics, power supply maker Lite-On Technology, battery module maker Simplo Technology, Korea-based panel maker LG Display and Japan-based DRAM maker Elpida Memory." - Digitmes.

The group hope to ship 150 000 notebooks in the first quarter. The concept is similar to VIA's Global Mobility Bazaar which sees Chinese manufacturers work together to build netbooks.
