This is the same netbook, which was last week released by Verizon Wireless. The netbook has very impressive looks. Also, the since it has a pretty wide keyboard, it is a joy to type onto it. Verizon Wireless was also smart to add a Qualcomm Gobi chipset, which lets the netbook work on Verizon's fast EV-DO Rev.Skype performed without any problems and did not show any sluggishness in the tests. Well, there are not going to be many problems especially, if you are on a XP machine. Had they gone for Vista, I am sure we would have heard a lot of complains from the users about its 'poor performance'.The only minus point to me is its resolution, which is 576 pixels in height. This can lead to problems like dialog boxes not being able to fully fit inside the screen. This is the same problem that I used to face on my old EEE 701, which had just 480 pixels in height. Some users will also complain about the position of the left and right click buttons. These buttons are on the sides of the trackpad instead of being at its bottom. Battery life is also nothing to talk home about: somewhere between 2-3 hours.Overall: An average netbook]]> http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/verizon-wireless-netbook-reviewed-hp-mini-1151nr/feed/ 6 http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/sharp-pc-nj70a-netbook-is-different-from-other-netbooks-features-lcd-in-its-trackpad/ http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/sharp-pc-nj70a-netbook-is-different-from-other-netbooks-features-lcd-in-its-trackpad/#comments Tue, 21 Apr 2009 12:55:06 +0000 Paul Merak http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=5173 mentioned a couple of days back? Well, some new details have emerge about it, something that makes it very different from the other netbooks in the market. It features an LCD trackpad.About the TrackpadContrary to what you must be thinking about its utility, it features multi-touch too. Looks like engineers at Sharp took some thoughts from the Apple's book. The resolution of the trackpad is really notable: 854 x 480. That is more than the one found on the early EEEs! (700 series). The brightness is automatically adjusted. The LCD on the trackpad can also be used as a second LCD and its resolution is not too bad for running programs. However, you will to squint your eyes to read the text.Read more!]]> http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/sharp-pc-nj70a-netbook-is-different-from-other-netbooks-features-lcd-in-its-trackpad/feed/ 0
