HP Pavilion dm1 CULV soon to make its debut
Attractive, affordable and stylish: These are the words that best describe the HP Pavilion dm1 CULV notebook/netbook. It is an 11.6-inch ultraportable based on Intel CULV chips and will soon be launched by HP. Nothing with surety can be said about its specs but one version will be based Intel’s cheapest dual-core low voltage CPU, the 1.2GHz SU2300 and will ship in couple of SKUs, with either 2GB or 3GB of memory and 250GB or 320GB of hard disk. Prices start at €450.
It will have HDMI out, 3 USB ports, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth, 289 x 204 x 19,8 – 30, 6mm body, 1.39kg weight and has 6-cell battery. Clearly, it is a direct competitor to the immensely popular TimeLine 1410/1810T (read its review)
Robovie PC Robot
First of all, don’t be surprised to a robot news on Gadgetmix.com. We are not changing niches anytime soon. The reason why Robovie got mentioned on gadgetmix.com is the fact that this robo ‘netbook’ is powered by an Atom processor. Huh? This is actually not a robot, but a robot with netbook innards. It comes with an Intel Atom Z530 processor that runs at 1.6Hz, slightly faster than Z520 that comes in entry-level VAIO P (review). For OS, you can install either of these four operating systems: Windows XP, Vista, 7 or Linux.
A webcam resides in place of its ‘eyes’. It has 2 USB ports, LAN and VGA out. It is powered by a 2000mAh battery and it weighs 2.2kg. It is being priced at $4500 (including tax) (388800 yen!), it is made to burn a real good hole in your pocket.
The only thing that is robot-like in this machine is the fact that you can program its legs. For that you must use Windows as Linux is not supported. Its legs has high maneuverability and can adjust its height by bending his legs.
Acer Ferrari One quick review
Apart from sporting stunning and sleek looks, Acer Ferrari One netbook is based on AMD’s Congo platform. Some people may regard it as ultrathin notebook, but we prefer to call it a netbook with lots of muscle-power.
Its AMD Athlon X2 L310 processor works at 1.2GHz clock speed and features 1MB of L2 cache. It has Radeon HD 3200 integrated graphics which comes with up to 2048MB of HyperMemory or to be precise it has 256+128MB of dedicated memory and up to 1663MB of shared system memory. The netbook/notebook is equipped with 2GB of DDR2 667/800 RAM ( upgradable upto 4GB as it has two SO-DIMM slots). This is unlike most of the netbooks that can have only upto 2GB RAM and sport only one SO-DIMM slot.

Coming to the the Elonex’s WebBook, this is a typical 10-inch netbook using VIA processor instead of an Intel Atom CPU which is a bit more powerful than its Atom counterpart but not as power-frugal. It also has a TV tuner card built-in
