Conclusions apart, Acer already have 11-inch model, namely 11.6 inch (hurry the limit of 11, almost reaching the figure banned: 12).
It’s been so long since we discussed the first model of netbook from Acer, the 8.9 inch hard disk mechanic and since then the market has evolved significantly, netbook models have come in spurts, and Acer would not be less, in fact soon will beat the record for most number of netbook models in the market, which so far holds, as no, Asus.
To which we, the new 751 is powered by an Intel Atom Z520 with US15W Express chipset (which they say allows hardware decoding some video codec.), 2 Gigs of RAM (DDR2 667/800 MHz SDRAM) and integrated graphics . Its LED-Backlight screen is 11.6 and has a nice resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels.
It is also endowed with Acer CrystalEye webcam, a brand new card reader, integrated 5.1 sound card and as they say in South America about Dolby speakers to listen to music and watch movies. The keyboard size is included; say normal in terms of dimensions, so the comfort is guaranteed.
As regards connectivity the Aspire One is equipped with 751 Wifi (802.11b / g), Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR as an option includes a modem UMTS / HSDPA / EDGE. Not bad at the small, good and not so small.
It also has 3 USB ports, VGA, Ethernet and sound output.
Another item to mention is served with battery cells 3 or 6, I guess with the substantial price increase.
It will be available in 4 different colors. In terms of price, will cost the equivalent to 518 dollars and is now available for sale in UK in May.
Personally I think its 11.6 inch screen and the keyboard size makes it the perfect portable on ergonomics. Would not surprise me that more than one use this as a main computer, you buy a 21 inch screen, good keyboard + USB mouse and turn it into dinner when you have to work at home, the only bad thing is the power, we must try.

Asus puts the dishes in the large (or vice versa!) Proposed here and its bestseller, the UL30, with the new NVIDIA Geforce 310M alongside Intel’s integrated chipset. On his new series, Asus has thus automating the management of energy. That is, when the machine is not requested, the processor will reduce its maximum frequency, and the display will be managed by the integrated Intel chipset. Once the need for felt power (Games, HD video), the processor increases the frequency and the display switches to the dedicated NVIDIA card to ensure the fluidity of the whole.

The rest of the configuration remains the same (as it is the same chassis), then loads the UL30JT an Intel i7 640UM or 620UM depending on configurations, up to 4 GB of DDR3 (1066 MHz), a graphics card NVIDIA Geforce 310M with 1 GB of dedicated memory (a GMA + HD), a 13.3-inch LED screen in 1366 x 768, HDMI port, VGA, 3 x USB, Ethernet port, an SD Card slot, WiFi b / g / n and Bluetooth. The storage will be provided by a disk of 640 GB

Regarding autonomy, Asus announced and introduced the 12 model with 8-cell battery of 5400mAh, without specifying whether this is the final battery. A priori, two batteries will be offered on the weight to 1.4 kg for 4 cells and 1.7 kg for the 8 cells.

We still lack information about the configuration details. It is certain that today will carry an ULV Core i7 (probably the i7-620UM) and NVIDIA GeForce 310M in parallel with an Intel GMA chipset. The rest of the configuration, based on a chassis UL80 should embark classics HDMI, VGA, 3xUSB Microphone, Headset, Ethernet and an SD card slot.

Asus is also vague on over clocking the processor. Indeed, the new Core i7 has the abilities over clocker automatically as needed (or reduce their consumption at maximum), it does not know if the Turbo 33 will feature the game. The big change compared to the previous generation remains the automation of power management. When the machine is not requested, the processor will reduce its maximum frequency, and the display will be managed by the integrated Intel chipset. Once the need for felt power (Games, HD video), the processor increases the frequency and the display switches to the dedicated NVIDIA card.

With this technique, Asus announces 12h maximum autonomy (in power saving mode), and the possibility of parallel power play (albeit by making concessions).

Little aside on this model and automatic failover announced. We sincerely hope that efforts have been made to ensure smoother operation and no longer hold to software problems. Indeed today, the series UL80VT, it is impossible to switch from one card to another if some common applications (Live Messenger, Steam …) are launched … There are more practical.

This UL80JT we expect a lot should reveal a bit more in the days and weeks ahead we will keep you informed of his arrival on the market.

The HP Pavilion dv8-1190ef is equipped with an Intel chipset HM55, a Core i7-720QM (1.6 GHz, 6MB cache), 4GB DDR3 1333 MHz RAM (8GB max), of 2 SATA drives of 500 GB at 7200 rpm, a graphic card Geforce GT 230M 1GB Dedicated 2.8 GB TurboCache, screen 18.4”WUXGA LED Ultra BrightView Infinity Full HD resolution of 1920 by 1080 , a webcam with microphone, Blu-Ray/graveur DVD combo drive, a card reader 5 in 1, a keypad, a 2.1 audio system Altec Lansing with Dolby Home Theater and Port Wi-Fi a / g / n, Bluetooth, HDMI, VGA, Firewire, ExpressCard54, Infrared, Headphones (x2) Microphone, Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 (x4 combo with 1 e-SATA).

Guaranteed 1 year, it runs under Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit with a Li-ion 4 cells, Weighs 4.06 kg and measuring 436 x 286 x 33.7-43.7 mm.

The design does not evolve and thus found a dark Espresso finish decorated with clear reasons curves on the hull and the wrist rests giving it an original look while remaining sober. The connector is positioned on the sides, in large part on the left. The touchpad on the eccentric left has a scroll zone and two buttons separated from each other not to mention a hold button.

Available for less than 1400 euros here at Fnac or here at Rue du Commerce, the HP Pavilion dv8-1190ef is positioned in the middle of its class.

This is a multimedia-oriented model with its Blu-Ray to enjoy media on the High Definition Full HD 16:9 screens, its audio system with subwoofer to immerse you in the atmosphere and that its space of storage of 1000 GB with two hard drives fast.

The Core i7 is also well suited to this type of use, it is much more efficient than the Quad Core generation. At ease in all situations or near it unveils its full potential in applications taking advantage of multi-heart as in the last drafts of Adobe Photoshop (photo) and Premiere (video).

The RAM is fully supported by the 64-bit system and the connection is provided.
We regret that the battery does not show a greater capacity, 4 cells are really just a PC of this type.

As for the dedicated graphics card, it will play tracks not too resource intensive 3D. Lower levels of detail and / or resolution will be needed in some games. In this regard, we may regret that HP has not resolved to integrate a graphics card belonging to the new 300 series Geforce or Radeon Mobility HD5000.

Mixture of aluminum on the outside and matte black inside, the lines of NX90 not leave anyone indifferent.
Some love and others detest.

The design of the screen is not unlike that of a TV. The speakers on either side of the deck enjoy a bigger size – four to five times by Asus – than other phones on the market. The sound rendering should be particularly careful, the NX90 also have an amplifier designed exclusively to accommodate the constraints of restitution of a laptop.

Another feature of NX90 its dual touchpad located on both sides of the keyboard, novel systems to date. The question is whether the efficiency is really improved compared to a conventional touchpad. A video is available at Engadget, but it does not really realize the grip available.

But design is not the only benefit of this notebook outside standard. The configuration is also up to the expectations of demanding users with an Intel Core i7 processor, graphics card NVIDIA Geforce GT 335M, Up to 1.28 TB of disk space or a Blu-Ray to enjoy High Definition on the slab 18.4 inch Full HD. The NX90 is also equipped with USB ports 3.

The price has not been disclosed, but it’s a safe bet that it will be like the other products of the B & O.

The T410 ThinkPad is an evolution of the T400 already marketed. As its name suggests, this is a 14-inch model. The main novelty is the introduction of Intel Core i5. A dual-channel chipset with integrated graphics and dedicated graphics card will also present to promote independence and the power of 3D calculations as needed. Some versions of the T410 can receive an optional touch screen. Lenovo also announced the ThinkPad T410 should embark a slightly smaller configuration.

Also new, the ThinkPad T510, which will carry its share to Intel Core i7 already available for several months (see the review for more information). The ThinkPad T510 features a slab 15 inches LED and shipped a new keyboard. Lenovo also announced a range of up to 18h with the 9 cell battery available as an option.

The ThinkPad W510, the workstation for professionals, will also benefit from Intel Core i7. Graphic artists and photographers will be interested in the presence of a probe calibration to display accurate color on the slab integrated. The latter is able to reproduce by Lenovo 95% of the gamut of the NTSC space.
The W510 can also be equipped with an NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M or a touch screen multi touch.

All models are of course available in several versions to suit the greatest number. Many options are available, for example, it is possible to choose a chip integrated 3G +, replace the hard disk by a DSS or to install up to 16GB of RAM.

Side tariffs, it will take about $ 1,000 for the T410, $ 1,400 for the T410, $ 1,600 for the T510 and W510. Lenovo announces availability for the month of January in the United States.

For the latest news, Apple Tablet – whose name remains unknown – was officially unveiled on January 27 during a “Special Event”, a showcase for the U.S. dedicated to Apple.

The Wall Street Journal, the marketing would not be immediate and should wait at least until next March for the joy of breaking the bank to acquire valuable novelty. The latter is expected at a rate close to $ 1,000 in the United States. In Europe, we must therefore expect a price also close to 1 447 U.S.D

Also according to the WSJ, the Apple tablet would have a slab of 10 or 11 inches. Conflicting information with some rumors but nonetheless seem plausible, a “form factor” of 11 inches offering a good comfort of use while providing a significant advantage over the iPhone.

Finally, the Wall Street Journal has a future tablet as a media device for viewing television, movies, play games, surf the Internet and read e-books and magazines. In sum, uses already possible with an iPhone but limited by the screen size of the latter.

Go therefore January 27 for the official announcement.
