Fitlet mini PCs officially support Windows 7/8 64 bit, and Linux Mint. The details specifications for Fitlet-B and Fitlet-X are not available (or I missed them), but the formers features a dual core E1 Micro-6200T processor @ 1.4 GHz with Radeon R2 graphics (3.95W TDP) and the latter the same A4 Micro-6400T processor.
If you wonder about the performance Fitlet mini PC are between “fit-PC4 Value” (AMD A4-1250) and Intense PC Value (Celeron 1047UE) in Geekbench 2 benchmark.
CompuLab fitlets will start selling in February 2015 for $129 for fitlet-B Barebone, via Amazon or directly from CompuLab or their resellers. More information is available on Compulab Fitlet product page, and you may want to check the press kit for pictures of the internals.
[Update: The Wiki shows some block diagrams for all three models, and even better a detailed comparison table between the three models.]

Too bad they didn’t choose the fastest mullins APU 🙁
hoping they won’t use a stupid Uefi 32 bit bios…
will this make a good nas box ???
@Jibril
I don’t think it will be 32bit UEFI since it supports win7/8 64bit
Nicers
is there any comparison of these with baytrail based boards regarding power consumption ?
Only if you can find these boxes. All AMD models are out of stock at fitpc pages and also Zotac does not have any models with Mullins processors.
