Dell’s refresh of the Mini 10 didn’t exactly knock our socks off when we got a chance to spend some quality time with it last month, but it did prove to be a solid performer and did as advertised, playing back 1080p content with aplomb — so long as you did it within a player that could make the most of a Broadcom’s Crystal HD accelerator. Now you have a chance to try it out for yourself, with Dell announcing the machine is shipping and, at $409 with a six-cell battery and a 250GB hard drive, it won’t break the bank either. Just steer clear of Quicktime for movie playback and get the most recent Flash beta on there pronto, yeah?

If you believe WiMAX is the future, but just can’t deal with that USB appendage ruining the sleek looks of your netbook, fret not. Dell’s Mini 10 has dropped by the FCC for a repeat visit, only this time it’s sporting a built-in WiMAX module. From what we’re told it’s an otherwise unmodified version of Round Rock’s latest and greatest 10-incher, so you’ll probably be wanting to visit our recent review to see if it makes for a worthy mobile computer. We suspect Sprint might have some retail space for these units when they arrive, given that the wireless carrier already offers the 3G-equipped Mini 10 on a subsidized basis and will be keen to offer a similar product to its expanding WiMAX clientelle.

Stantum Japan already got us all giddy and schoolgirlish once, and now that the company’s TouchPark has reached the proof of concept stage, we’re ready to fawn all over again. Initially compatible only with smartphone hardware, the firmware seems to have been adapted to the x86 instruction set, as it’s now perched atop a Dell Mini 10 netbook modded with a resistive touchscreen. Responsiveness and accuracy are both remarkable, with the multitouch feature accommodating as many fingers as you can fit on the screen. There’s pressure sensitivity too, and we even get to see the thing used with a paintbrush. A paintbrush. Scalable from 2.5 to 30 inches, this can do all the gestures, swipes and rotations you want, and viewing the video after the break will lead you to conclude the same as us: this needs to be out yesterday.

The last time we saw Stantum, it was blowin’ minds with its
PMatrix technology — and here we are, a mere ten months later, and the company’s back with its proof-of-concept Slate PC. Based on the
Dell Mini 10 platform, this bad boy features a 10.1-inch “unlimited” touchscreen and new, compact case. In order to save space, the company did away with not only the keyboard and trackpad, but the webcam, WiFi, Bluetooth, and one of the USB ports (bringing the total down to two) as well — which just might limit the appeal for resellers. You never know. Feel like diving in? Hit the read link to contact the company, and tell ‘em Engadget sent you.

Samsung has a family of netbooks with names surprisingly similar probe. The N110 and N120 Most importantly, we have recently been revised following the NC10, despite the general appearance, we would like for the battery life. The N110 was able to obtain a six cell battery to a fairly narrow, and NC10 make very small touchpad. But nearly 350, are more expensive than the competition, but by the same person from Intel, 160GB hard drive and 1GB RAM data.
Sony’s first foray into the world of portable computers for nuclear propulsion was the P-series Vaio computer lifestyle with a unique design miniaturized (about the same footprint as a business model) file, but it was warm outstanding issues (not prevent CSA) and use the operating system of Windows Vista. After the release of this product, Sony is the fact that, despite the Atom processor and the small size, certainly not Netbook. The new Vaio W, on the other hand, obviously a netbook with Windows XP, a screen 10 inches, and a form factor familiar netbook.

The brand-new, 3G equipped min-laptop, the Booklet 3G. The 10.1-inch screen and Atom processor put it clearly in the netbook market, but it comes with some extras you won’t find elsewhere; the kind of extras you’d expect from a mobile phone manufacturer.
Nokia doesn’t make phones. It makes portable devices. And it appears the Finnish company also doesn’t make netbooks. Instead it makes “mini-laptops”.
First, the thin (2cm) aluminum case holds an HDMI-out port, along with the usual webcam, Bluetooth and SD card reader. The good thing about this booklet is that its equipped with sim card slot you can use this booklt as a phone as well.
Nokia’s new foray in to the world of netbooks has resulted in the Booklet 3G – a miniature PC with a giant amount of bells and whistles. You will find the battery trimmings quite impressive it last for 12 hours which is above the mark till now so this Nokia booklet will end up good kind of a feature technology. The first impressions are of a tool that looks well-formed, although it doesn’t have an expensive sheen to it. That is not necessarily a negative point, but it does come in at £500, so you’ll have to think about the netbook you need to be seen with.

Dell may be introduced late to the 10-inch netbook party, but its Inspiron Mini 10 gives a look in very key ways. Dell introduced one of the thinest and lightest of its class, with lots of color styles which brings out a person’s style in its own way, and they have the attention of all users by its mini keyboard which might is a little small but still handy when you are using it. Plus, Dell will be upgrading it with the wireless and TV tuner card which will surely bring it out in the market. However, the touchpad and touchpad button design are awkward which won’t be easy to use in the beginning but you will get use to it. The three cell battery of Dell is a bit adequate but we will wait for the cell battery to come up.
The Mini 10 carries on the same design as Mini 9 and 12; the rounded lid sport with same glossy look and they are available in 6 different colors which will only cost you $30 extra so you might go for it if you want to bring out your style. When you open the hood it give you a glitzy look of its keyboard and you might find the mouse sensors a little small kind of compact when you use the two buttons together.
The Mini 10 came to market and its one of the compact of all brands. The areas are 10.3 x 7.2 x 1.3 inches, it’s both give a thinner and shorter look then Samsung NC10 and the ASUS Eee PC 1000HE. 1-inch, 2.4-pound HP Mini 1000 is much thinner and lighter, but the 2.6-pound Mini 10 fits in to your bags easily and still it gives you enough space. The cord is single, AC adapter which is 0.4-pound is more compact than most of its ilk.
