Hewlett-Packard hasn’t announced the Mini 210 Netbook yet–but a reseller has.
The follow-on to the popular Mini 1000 and 110 Netbook series, the 210 packs Intel’s newest Atom N450 silicon, which features an updated graphics chip built directly onto the central processing unit, or CPU. Netbooks are tiny laptops designed for undemanding Web-based tasks and typically sell for about $350.
Reseller eCost lists the Mini 210 at $389 and shows a few models as "in stock." A call to a sales representative confirmed this.
And even HP has jumped the gun. A full menu of items about the unannounced Netbook on HP’s support Web page includes information about "software and driver downloads" and a user guide.
Here are the Mini 210 specs as listed by eCost:
- Operating System: Win7 Starter

ick…underpowered. Hopefully the “netbook” trend will recede a bit now that the economy isn’t (totally) in shambles anymore.
