Netbooks are one of the most sought after gadgets for Black Friday 2009. The same was true last year. The big difference this year is that Windows 7 netbooks are available now.

This means that on Black Friday retailers will try to get rid of their inventory and XP Netbook very cheap netbooks do not have the latest version of the operating system installed.

I looked back over the Black Friday 2008 netbook offerings and many offers were the $ 299 price. For the money you just a Dell Mini 9, for example, with 8.9-inch display, 512MB RAM, 4GB SSD, under Ubuntu Linux.

This year on Black Friday, I expect much better deals at under $ 200, probably $ hit 150.

I expect that you will find 7 Windows netbook for about $ 250 on Black Friday and Thanksgiving. Windows XP netbooks should be a bargain at $ 150 and possibly some retailers try to sell you a Linux netbook for even under $ 150.

Otherwise, with respect to the characteristics of the U200, a 12-inch LED backlight display with 1366 x 768, a 1.20GHz Intel Celeron M ULV 723 processor, 2 GB of RAM and a 250 GB hard drive. Further details are 802.11b g n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR and a 3-cell battery.

The third quarter of 2008 marked a first for the computer industry. According to iSuppli, more laptops were sold worldwide than desktop PCs – only for the quarter, however. Compared to the third quarter of 2007, notebook PC sales spiked 40% to 38.6 million computers sold. The desktop PC market will not fare quite as well.

“Momentum was in the notebook market for some time, it is not surprising that a complete shipments have surpassed that of desktop PCs,” says Matthew Wilkins, principal analyst for the calculation of platforms at iSuppli. “However, this is an important event in the PC market, because the beginning of the era of the notebook.”

According to Rob Galbraith, it is. The veteran photographer and detail-obsessed camera expert has to turn his lens notebook display, she checked in particular as they relate to the pro-snapper.

The shocker is that the Dell Mini 9 proposes Unibody 15-inch MacBook Pro on color, viewing angle even though it slip again the ranking.

It turns out that Galbraith not like the new glossy glass screens Apple has forced on its two smaller notebooks:

For a long time, Apple laptop ruled the roost around here. With very few exceptions, goes back to the days of the PowerBook G4 portable Macs have been significantly more accurate color than any of the dozens of PCs and laptops, we profiled. Macs are no longer at the top of the laptop display heap our heads.

That has to hurt. The test was in an old classic, the Lenovo ThinkPad T60 and new 17 “Behemoth, the ThinkPad W700. Of the four, the ThinkPads swapped first and second place between them in color and perspective. The giant desktop replacement, the color as spot, as the optional $ 70 in color calibrator, which – at the push of a button and in the vicinity of a lid – the chlorine right in just three minutes.

It is interesting that the Apple Computer result so bad, but. Macs are great for photographers, and are reflected by a Netbook is just embarrassing.

The Asus Eee PC S101H is basically an Eee PC with a hard drive instead of a solid-state disk. I have a chance to see, one at CES, but not think too much of them because they seemed to have almost exactly the same specifications as the Eee PC S101, up to 10.4 “x 7.1″ x 1 “dimensions. I’ve also said that there are currently no plans to release the S101H in the U.S..

And you know what? The model with the hard drive is a little thicker.

We heard some noise today that Acer planning to replace its current 8.9-inch Aspire One with the previously seen 10.1-inch Aspire One (of 103), a gradual withdrawal from the former. The new model will pack an Intel Atom 1.6 GHz CPU and 1 GB of RAM, optional 3G, SDHC card slot, 3 USB ports – fairly standard fare, to ensure that – if it is to come into a some sexy colors we make sure you like the look of course, Digitimes (the source of the rumor) is not necessarily the most reliable paper we read in the morning with our coffee, but the special delicacy not strike us terribly far-fetched. We have the (supposedly) to wait until sometime in the second quarter to find out for sure when. In the meantime: calm down.

Sony is at pains to point out that its new VAIO S-series is not an ultra-portable Netbook – he said at the CES, and now it’s back to say on the Sony Electronics blog. The Post goes with “We had a lot of fun … tell people why the new P-series VAIO lifestyle PC is not a so-called Netbook computers,” but we feel a few teeth.

Sony Blogger Rick differences between the lists of the VAIO S-Series and other netbooks, but they are not all together …

First, Rick called the keyboard – “much closer to a notebook keyboard larger than what you see on most netbooks.” It is true that the P-series has been designed keyboard, but there are many 10in screen netbooks with 90-odd percent of full-size keyboard.

The 1600 x 768 screen is certainly a distinguishing feature for the P-series, but the HP 2133 Mini-Note had a 1280 x 768 display, which is not far off. Also, the nuclear-Z processor that different from the nuclear-N processors other netbooks, even if we admit that the P-Series is the first fanless, he un-Netbook we’ve seen.

We dismiss the P-series “Wireless” for obvious reasons – all netbooks have Wi-Fi, and some have HSDPA. The new Asus Eee PC T91 has GPS, so that Sony has not stolen the march on that one either.

High-capacity SSDs aren’ta USP either – the Asus Eee PC S101 is similar to – and still is an instant-on Linux mode (ditto).

But we also think Rick and Sony protest too much here. Although there is a risk of VAIO S-series are classified as poor if it attracts a “Netbook” day, one thing is cetain – it is a class for itself. Yes, it’s over prices in the United Kingdom, but it is not to deny that it is a stunning ultra-portable and no matter how many netbooks sure you will not find anything remotely comparable enevn.
