HannSpree Hannsbook S10 Netbook Hands On – IFA 2010
Sep 3rd
The first netbook over at IFA gets handled and sadly it’s nothing to get excited about. nDevil shows us the HanSpree S10 10-inch netbook powered by an Atom N470 processor, 1GB DDR2 RAM,3G, SIM card slot and a 5,200mAh 6-cell battery priced at 400 euros.
Apart from the matte display, 3G and large access panels on the back there’s nothing here that’s going to wow you. The chassis is rather glossy with “wobbly” trackpad buttons and the keyboard has a little bit of flex to it. Don’t expect to see this netbook outside of Europe.
Samsung Announces New NF Series Netbooks
Sep 1st
Samsung has announced a new NF series of netbooks (along with some 13.3-inch and over notebooks) over in Korea today which comprises three netbooks, one of which shows a lot of promise with a HD screen and a dual core processor.
There’s the lowest end NF110 which is said to be “affordable” and that’s about it. Then there’s the NF210 with a whopping 8850 mAh 6-cell battery good for up to 14 hours. I wouldn’t doubt it with that capacity. Last of all there’s the NF310 which packs a 1366 x 768 HD display, surround sound system, dual core Atom N550 processor along with DDR3 RAM. I assume these three netbooks all have 10.1-inch displays. The design of the only picture available is rather… interesting and there’s no word if all three models share this same design.
ASUS Eee PC 1015PEM Is The First Dual Core Atom N550 Netbook On The Block
Aug 26th
ASUS has beat everyone to the punch when it comes to shoving that dual core Atom N550 (1.5 GHz) into a netbook and will very shortly be releasing the ASUS Eee PC 1015PEM which is basically a 1015PE with the dual core processor.
The ASUS Eee PC 1015PEM will have a 10.1″ 1024 x 600 display, 1 – 2GB DDR3 RAM, 250GB HDD, GMA 3150 graphics, support 720p (I guess that means out of the box, and Flash) and come in four colors – red, black, white and pink. Price is 349 euros and it should be available somewhere in Europe any day now and in Singapore from next week. (Update: ASUS UK tweeted an October release)
