The next big thing in netbooks, after Nvidia ION 2 and Optimus technology, must surely be dual core processors – not desktop / nettop based ones but ones specifically for netbooks that need good battery life like the upcoming Atom N550 processor. One product confirmed with this processor is the ASUS Eee PC 1015N which

ASUS was rumored to be showing off a few new netbooks yesterday the 1215, 1015 & 1218 but there were none. Instead we came across the Bamboo Notebook the U33jc with no DVD drive. We show off the computer & talk about how the line between notebooks & netbooks blurs just a little bit more.

Chippy from UMPCPortal has taken some time out from running around like a madman at MWC to sit down with the Compaq Airlife 100. If you’ll recall this is the new Snapdragon-toting Netbook-form-factor-Smartbook, if thats not over-complicating things. The Airlife 100 runs Android , has a 10.1″ Resistive touchscreen, and due to that lean Snapdragon

Most of the UMPC and MIDs available today share the same disadvantage: most of the time the keyboard just doesn’t work well at those tiny key sizes, especially if you have large hands. What to do? One possible solution could be using one of these ultra-portable external keyboards with your UMPC! The device shown on the right for example, bearing the rather technical description “Targus PA875U01X”, weighs just 180 grams at a size of 280 x 108 x 9 mm (unfolded), with 68 full-sized keys in QWERTY layout – enabling easy and smooth ten-finger typing for the mobile email enthusiast

During the last few months, Asus has started selling the “eeePC 1000H GO” with internal 3G/HSDPA card for easy everywhere connectivity. So far so good, but what about all those thousands of customers that already bought an eeePC 1000H before? Are they doomed to use one of those ugly external USB 3G modems – a threat to your eeePCs health if you drop it accidentally and the USB stick destroys the USB port it was sticking in (if not even more)…

For all those users without free USB ports on their smartphones, PDAs, MIDs and other devices, or those with an aversion against cables in general, there are also bluetooth versions of those full-sized foldable keyboards I mentioned already on this blog few days ago – namely I’d like to make mention here of the “Freedom Universal Keyboard²” (from a company called Freedom Input Ltd) with its own two AAA sized batteries and – most important – bluetooth! The manufacturer claims that due to support for both HID mode (used and recognized by all PCs, most PDAs, UMPCs and smartphones) and SPP mode, a bluetooth serial port emulation protocol utilized by the blackberry family of smartphones for example, this gadget enjoys comaptibility to > 200 different devices. Sure is that every device with bluetooth and either Blackberry OS 4.0 and upwards, symbian OS v9, or windows mobile 5 & 6 ( both PPC and smartphone edition), as well as Windows 2000 and WinXP is supported without need to install any drivers. No mention of linux though, and what about windows CE??
