Samsung N510 – with Windows 7 and ION LE – up on Samsung Australia website

After launching the ION (LE)-powered Samsung N510 in Europe, Samsung still shows no signs of bringing it to the US. In the past, we heard that the launch of N510 was going to be postponed until Windows 7′s launch. Now, it is up on Samsung Australia webpage and it is being offered with slightly beefier specs: 250GB HDD, 2GB RAM and Atom N280 processors (previous leaked specs: 160GB HDD, 1GB RAM and N270 processor)

More specs:

• 11.6-inch display @ 1366 x 768 resolution
• Bluetooth
• Wi-Fi b/g
  
• 1.3MP webcam
• 6-cell 5900mAh battery
• 3 USB 2.0 ports
• 3-in-one card reader
• LAN

Weighing at 1.4kg, it may not be the lightest netbook that you would ever seen, but then you won’t find a lot of feature-packed netbooks like this. Pricing start from $872 AUD.

With the Windows 7 release just around the corner. which has full support for DirectX 10, we expected more from HP, a netbook with Nvidia’s ION chipset and not some LE chipset. Also, whats up with the aged Atom N270 processor? We are certainly not amused
