Netbook Update

Netbooks continue to grow in popularity and new machines seem to be launched almost daily.    First of all the Asus Eee PC S101 looks like a real contender for the title "Netbook King".  It moves away from the netbooks "low cost device" tag but it is a fantastic portable.

Fujitsu Siemens has announced the Amilo UI 3250 Netbook but first impressions aren't that favorable compared with the competition.

Next comes an update to the MSI Wind U100 which can now be specified with an 802.11n wireless LAN and 160gb hard drive.  It also has a 6 cell battery giving 4 hours plus operating time.  The price has also been reduced.

Shortly arriving is the Packard Bell Dot an 8.9 inch netbook with windows xp.  No 3G support on the initial machine though.

Finally we have another 8.9 incher with the Toshiba NB100.  We'll add more details and reviews as more inforamtion emerges.
