With a few Atom-based Netbook clearing of the eight hours at the mark with a six-cell battery, we hope that the Gateway AMD version packs a little more wallop to the somewhat shorter battery.

Kohjinsha SK3 UMPC hits Japan

Kohjinsha SK3 UMPC hits Japan

Kohjinsha UMPC of SK3 was officially in Japan. The 7-inch touchscreen SK3 gets a 1.33GHz Intel Atom processor, coupled with 1 GB of RAM and a 60 GB 1.8-inch 4200 rpm hard drive, there is also WiFi b g n, Bluetooth 2.0, and GPS.

As expected, there are dual cameras, a low-resolution webcam on the screen for video calls and a 3-megapixel version probably still shots. Ethernet 10 100 ports include VGA, audio in out, a microSD slot, two USB 2.0 ports, multi-format card reader and an ExpressCard 34 slot.

It is also impressive SC3 smaller than its predecessor, with 193 x 132 x 30 mm and a weight of only 720g. Kohjinsha beat duration 3.2hrs battery 17Wh in JEITA test, a test known to be over-ambitious. Steve from UMPC Portal (which, frankly, we are confident about the battery life estimates, more than we ever have JEITA) is guesstimating at between 2 and 2.5hrs in the real world use, this is a real disappointment.

Nevertheless, we will not argue with more options in the category of ultra-touch screen, and we have a sense of Japanese customers, if either the Kohjinsha SK3 is for sale. It is expected that the prices in the amount of approximately $ 733, including local taxes.

HP Mini 5101 Business Netbook

HP Mini 5101 business netbook

One of our favorite all-ime Netbook, the HP Mini 2140, a brushed-metal system from HP’s business line is a cousin that focuses on the consumer mini-1000. Interestingly, it is one of your favorites, also known as Mini 2140 is the fourth most viewed laptop.

The new and quite different, 5101 Mini-trades the silver metal-look, with a slight curve on the lid, for a squared-off design in black brushed aluminum. HP Ted Clark, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Notebook Global Business Unit, calls it “truly a work of art, a demanding PC companion crafted for the trend-savvy mobile professional needs, the functional, durability and style.” We are not sure we would go so far, but it is a pretty smooth looking Netbook.

We are always happy to HP mini 2140 for its solid construction and high-end extras, such as an ExpressCard slot. The new version loses the ExpressCard, but adds a standard hard drive 7200 RPM and an optional higher resolution 1366 x768 screen. An optional integrated Gobi powered HP Mobile Broadband Module will also be offered, along with some proprietary software for the organization to synchronize files between desktop PCs and portable Netbook (and HP has promised us that it is better than the corrupted version the same software found in the last HP Netbook Mini 110).

The other thing we are a little concerned about is changes to the mini-keyboard – one of our most popular features. The broad, flat, closely spaced buttons have been optimized to look and feel a bit more like the keys on a MacBook or Sony Vaio laptop, with a good amount of space between them. We need to play around with the system a bit longer to decide whether we like the new layout better. A positive development – the touchpad mouse buttons were in a traditional spot under the touchpad, rather than on both sides.

The HP Mini 5101 is expected to be available in late July.

HiPhone’s super-thin iLaptop with a 12 inch display
