The preliminary specs look similar to the second-generation Eee PCs as it weighs less than 3 pounds, 900MHz Celeron M processor, 512MB RAM, WiFi, Ethernet, 40GB HDD and more importantly a 9-inch diagonally wide LCD. To make this Netbook more convenient, Intel also decided to throw in a carry handle similar to the one on Classmate PC."<br /><br /></em><img border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/500/dht/auto/1205886019.usr10.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />While I love the competition in this space, I've got to ask, does anyone really want an UGLY handle on their machine? Manufacturers, unless it is tough enough not to need a case, please don't add a handle.
