This &euro;329 ($425) netbook sports a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB memory, 160GB hard drive, a 10.1-inch (1024 x 600) display, and a 3-cell battery. Then in March, the D150-1B makes its appearance. An enhanced version of the D150, this device is otherwise identical, save a 6-cell battery that should be good for up to 7 hours -- the battery upgrade will set you back a cool &euro;349 ($450)."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1233181021.usr10.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/26/acers-10-inch-netbook-gets-model-numbers-release-date/" target="_blank">Engadget has some details</a> on the new Aspire One models, but they seem a little late and overpriced.&nbsp; I recently picked up the Asus Eee 1000-HA for $385 and it has pretty much identical specs.&nbsp; I'll reserve any further judgement until we get firm US pricing and release dates.&nbsp;</p>

What's late in this market? Until there's any advances in processor & video they'll all be the same really ;)
