Reviews

HP Mini 2140 (Intel Atom N270 processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

HP offers a premium version of its Mini 1000 while keeping the price down, making the Mini 2140 the netbook to beat.
Sony Vaio VGN-P15G (Intel Atom Z530 processor 1.6GHz, 2GB RAM)

Sony's upscale Atom-powered Lifestyle PC has the components of a cheaper machine, but the design of a more expensive one. The end result will be a useful travel PC for some and a conversation piece for others.
Toshiba NB100

In the face of an identical hardware platform, Toshiba's netbook fails to bring a unique point of difference.
HP Mini 1000

HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.
Toshiba Portege R400 (with HSDPA)

The last year has not been kind to Toshiba's Portege R400. While it retains the advantage of being a tablet, in all other respects the rest of the ultraportable crowd have left it well behind.
HP 2133 Mini-Note

Despite an underpowered CPU, the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC offers the best balance of small size, comfort, and functionality we've seen in a mini-notebook, making it fast a favourite for on-the-go use.
Apple MacBook Air (1.6GHz)

Apple has released what has to be the thinnest notebook ever -- the MacBook Air.
Fujitsu LifeBook T2010

The LifeBook T2010 qualifies as a middle of the road offering from Fujitsu. It'll do the job, but you'll want to poke around at its competitors first.
