The smaller version of the ec14 only comes with a single intel celeron processor which can be misleading for viewers

Thanks for watching and commenting. Lemme see if I can answer some of your concerns.

There are only two sizes of the EC series. The EC54/58 is the 15.6″ 5lb unit, and the EC14 series is the 11.6″ <3lb model.

The EC14 DOES come in CPU configs from a Celeron to the dual-core SU, but all EC14 models are the same size and weight, that is to say, they are the same size as a 11.6″ LT Netbook.
.
Peace,
Fr. Robert

**BUT I have one question..! What about the performance of the webcam b/c that is important to me. How many megapixels is it?How is the quality during video conferences? And how does it compare to other webcams such as iSight in the mac or motion eye in the Sony vaio?

No… the EC1437 has the footprint of a netbook, but it has laptop power. (Hence the “UnNetbook” moniker) — It does Photoshop, Word, AIM, Premier and pretty much anything else you can run on a mid-range notebook. (The video is a bit weak, so no gaming, but the CPU has plenty of punch.)

The camera does 640×480 — A bit on the low end, but pretty standard for non-HD videoconferencing. It doesn’t compare to the iSight, but I’ve never used a Sony Motion Eye.
.
Bottom line: Integrated is fine for general use, but if you want quality video, go for an external USB camera like the Logitech Pro9000 (also reviewed on ‘gadget’).
