The Netbook 10-inch soon updated with Pine-view Atom N450,Dell should start early January a new version of its Inspiron Mini 10 Netbook equipped with an Intel platform Pine Trail and Pine-view Atom processor N450.

The new Dell Inspiron Mini 10 should see their rates start at $ 299 with Windows 7 or Windows XP Starter Home.

Besides a Pine-view Atom N450 processor clocked at 1.66 GHz, Dell Inspiron Mini 10 will carry a configuration close to the current Mini 10.

Although most versions will be offered with a 6-cell 56Whr battery autonomy announced offering of 8:44, 3 cell battery 28Whr should also be available on the weight of the Mini 10 to 1247 Kg A 6 cell battery high capacity 60Whr displaying a 9:34 autonomy is also part. With it, the weight of the Mini 10 will reach 1.4 Kg

The dimensions of the Mini 10 are 266.7 x 198.12 x 33.02 mm, and are a 3 cell battery or 6 cells are embedded.

The new Mini 10 benefits because of a design review relative to current Mini 10. Indeed, once built, the battery 3 or 6 cell does not exceed the frame back or underside as is currently the case.

Other news, the palm rest has a textured surface which shows less fingerprints. On the side of the touchpad, buttons are always built on the surface but support multi-touch is more appropriate.

Contrary to what some hoped, no doubt, Dell has not resolved to equip its new Mini 10 an NVIDIA graphics chip ION.

The Texas firm says that we find in fact an optional Broadcom chip Crystal HD Media Accelerator for smooth playback of HD movies 720p and 1080p. The ION was rejected because its price / performance ratio has been considered less interesting. The Broadcom chip is actually less expensive than the ION and consumes less energy. Furthermore, play is not a priority for many who wish to invest in a Netbook.

Still later options, you will find a WXGA HD 1366
