We had our doubts about the U2010 being Fujitsu’s netbook offering, and we were right as the Amilo Mini Ui 3520 set to be released this year. It’ll feature a 1.6GHz Atom processor, an 8.9-inch display, 1GB RAM, and either 60GB or 80GB HDD. Windows XP will be its OS and it’ll also be the first netbook to come with an ExpressCard Slot.
LG’s netbook, the LG X110, meanwhile, will feature a bigger 10-inch screen, 1GB RAM, optional 3G connectivity, and choice of either 120GB or 160GB HDD. The speed of the Atom processor was unspecified. This one’s expected to be released in October.
Both netbooks are scheduled to debut in Europe first with a starting price of 399 Euros (roughly $600) which doesn’t make it at all as affordable as the Asus Eee or Acer Aspire One. With the netbook bandwagon slowly becoming overcrowded, new players should think of bringing something new to the table especially if they’re going to charge more because quite frankly, I’m not willing to pay several hundred more just for additional HDD space.
