Besides planning to launch their CULV-based Samsung X120 and X420, Samsung Russia has announced two new 10.1-inch netbooks: Samsung N130 and Samsung N140. It has ho-hum specs, nothing unusual or special:

Look at the audacity of Samsung: Releasing a netbook with the Atom N270 processor in the Q4 of 2009! The N130, that has an Atom N270 processor and a pitiful 1.5W mono speaker comes with a 3-cell (2300 mAh) or 6-cell (4000mAh) battery. This is the same company that released the revolutionary Samsung NC10 netbook an year ago which sported a marvelous 6-7 hours of battery life.

The higher end Samsung N140 has an Atom N280 processor though. It also has Bluetooth 2.1, 3W stereo speakers and higher capacity 6-cell batteries (5200 or 5900 mAh). Gratifying, I must say. You can get one in white, black or dark blue color. Nothing is known about its pricing.
