Dear HP 2140 / 2150 Buyers,

Just when you think HP 2140 is a good enough substitution for 2133, think again.

I know it is now Windows OS, bigger screen with 2140.

But 2150 has got one more advantage, it has a built in 3G.

However, the bad news is, it's not out till June 2009.

Wait if you have the patience.

HP may have just launched the HP 2140 Mini-Note during CES last week, but DigiTimes reports the company is already planning another model called the HP 2150 Mini-Note. THe 2150 will basically be the same machine as the 2140, but it will have a built in 3G wireless module

and should be available in June, about four months after the February release date for the HP 2140.

Both netbooks will have a 10.1 inch display with resolutions up to 1366 x 768 pixels, a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, a 160GB HDD or 80GB SSD and a 3 or 6 cell battery.

Unlike the HP Mini 1000 netbook which is being handled by HP’s consumer division, the HP 2133/2140/2150 Mini-Note models are part of HP’s commercial division, which means that while anyone can purchase one of these netbooks, the machines are aimed at business users. And that means they’ll likely have a significantly higher price than the $350 for the base model HP Mini 1000.

Quoted from liliputing.

At the moment, netbooks that interest me are the following:



This is the most expensive so far excluding Sony etc. But it is for girls.

And the next is HP Mini 1000 Mi Netbook.

Well, I don't think it's available yet in UK.



As mentioned above, HP 2140 is not bad, but the 2150 is not far from coming out.

I can't seem to find any store which sells 2140 though.



Lastly it is the Compact 700.

This is the only one available. I had a look at it at PCworld.

Not bad, but there is no output for external monitor.
