The M5A features in a 5-inch WVGA touch screen, 1.1GHz Intel Atom Z510 processor with the 1.2GHz Z515 as an option, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 16GB SSD, Bluetooth 2.0 and b/g WiFi connectivity with optional GPS and 3G, VGA webcam, micro SD slot, and a mixture of the standard issue USB and audio ports. More uniquely, the M5A also includes a SIM card slot with a built-in voice modem allowing the device to be used as a phone. There are also further options for more (32/64GB) or less (8GB) storage and operating systems with Windows XP and Linux alternatives to Windows 7. On the downside, a 7.4V 1900mAh battery only gives 3 hours of battery life, but considering the hardware, the device is a fairly compact 6.3" x 3.8" x 0.8" and weighs 12.3 ounces.
