The Epson Endeavor in the news
With the Epson Endeavor, I led the creation of a slim and light notebook that the US media seems to love, except maybe for the fact that the product is only available In Japan.

Are you looking for a light and powerful notebook? Here’s the latest wonder from Epson, the Endeavor NA801.

Its also nice to see that power doesn’t have to weigh a ton, the NA801 weighs in at just over 4-pounds.
The Japanese Epson website confirms that the NA801 will retail for around $1000 when it is released, sadly this will be available only in Japan.

Since I have been in Japan for a trend analysis at Tokyo Motor Show and since this marks the first time that I am in the land of the rising sun, I am using the opportunity and take a few days off, to explore Tokyo a bit and travel to Kyoto with stopovers in Nagoya and Osaka… I am very impressed with pretty much everything that I am seeing and am enjoying my conversations with some German friends here (it’s great fun to compare notes on our Asian adventures), as well as with a few new Japanese friends that I have made!
