Netbook Reviews

Sharp Mebius NJ70A has gained a lot of attention in a short time, and for good reason. The Sharp Mebius shakes up the netbook market by adding a new feature which hasn’t been seen on another netbook or notebook before.

Rather than use a standard touchpad, the Sharp Mebius NJ70A features a high resolution 4-inch color LCD touchscreen / touchpad! The larger size makes it easier to use, while the 854 x 480 pixel screen looks amazing and adds a whole bunch of interactive possibilities, and can be used as a secondary display for adjusting an equalizer virtually.

The Sharp NJ70A looks great also, with a very impressive design. Looking a lot like a highend notebook, the NJ70A features a 10.1-inch display with a 1024×600 pixel resolution, with a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, and a 160GB hard drive.

As you can see, the Sharp Mebius NJ70A has some fairly typical internal specifications. It also has 3x USB 2.0 ports, WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, and the typical multicard reader. It’s available in white, and black color options.

So far the Sharp Mebius NJ70A has only been announced in Japan for ¥80,000, which comes to $817. But a U.S website, dynamism, is currently taking pre-orders for the Japanese import for $999.  Hopefully Sharp will release the Mebius around the world soon.
