At the ongoing fall Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, Intel president and CEO Paul Otellini introduced a sub-US$400 "Classmate PC" notebook model for the company's "Intel World Ahead Program" that targets emerging markets. The notebooks are scheduled for volume production starting from the first quarter of 2007, according to Otellini, adding that the first batch of orders have been placed by governments in Mexico, Brazil, Nigeria and India.

The Intel World Ahead Program was announced in May this year.

The low-cost Classmate PC series, codenamed Eduwise, feature Intel Celeron M CPUs paired with 915GMS chipsets and a seven-inch WVXGA (800×480) LCD display. The model features 256MB DDR2 SO-DIMM memory, 1GB NAND flash memory (no HDD) and a 6-cell standard Lithium Ion battery. The system will adopt the Windows XP embedded OS.

Production of Intel's Classmate PC models will initially be fulfilled by Taiwan's Uniwill Computer, which Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) is currently in the final stages of acquiring.

The IDF Fall event is held in San Francisco from September 26-28.
