Netbook Reviews

We have just read that Engadget has got wind of some rumors from a “very reliable tipster” that Verizon and HP are working together on a number of subsidized WWAN-enabled netbooks.

MSI have launched their new MSI U110 Eco netbook as part of their successful Wind range. Personally I would consider all netbooks “Eco” as they use very little power compared to a desktop PC or even laptop, but the MSI U110 Eco takes this even further, leading to an incredible battery life of nine hours.

MSI have just released a great looking new nettop called the MSI Wind Nettop CS120, or maybe even MSI CS120 for short. This nettop / desktop PC features all the usual features you would expect to find, such as WiFi, and the Intel Atom CPU, but there is also a nice DVD rewriter sitting in the middle via a neat slot feed.

There have been many rumors flying around the Internet about the possibility of an Apple Netbook, or an Apple touchscreen netbook to be exact.

These rumors have recently gained a little more credibility and information after Dow Jones Newswire reported that two people close to the situation confirm the rumor.

HP launched the mini-Q nettop in Taiwan last November, and now the very same model seems to be joining the rest of the world known as the HP Compaq CQ2000M.

Now launching in Europe, the name might of changed, but the Compaq CQ2000M is the same little nettop with the same specifications under the hood.

Upgrading the ram in your netbook can be one of the easiest, cheapest and most effective performance boost you can give.

Upgrading your netbook ram can usually be done in a matter of mere minuets, and usually involves simply removing the plastic cover on the base of your netbook and swamping out the old ram module for the new larger capacity module.

The Dell Mini 10 seems to offer the perfect size between their 12-inch and 9-inch model, offering both easy mobility with it’s light and small size, but also enough screen size to be used comfortable.

The 10-inch netbook market competition has been growing rapidly, but the Dell Inspiron Mini 10 competes very well, by being the thinnest and lightest in it’s size class.

Asus have quietly announced two new Eee Top PCs at CeBIT this year. The new Asus Eee Top ET2203 and ET2003 all-in-one touch screen PCs look a lot nicer style wise than many of the existing models, and are HD capable (judging from their HDMI ports).

Almost exactly a month ago we posted about the new special edition Samsung NC10 black, listed as the Samsung NC10-11PBK. At the time the Black Samsung NC10 was up for pre-order for $499, which was at the time $50 more than the standard NC10.

I just spent a few minuets surfing around the official Dell site, looking at the different Inspiron Mini netbooks (9, 10 and 12), and spotted a new model.

A model listed as the Dell Inspiron Mini 9n, the 9n is a variation of the Inspiron Mini 9.
