The Dell "Rosemount" leaked on the company's roadmap just yesterday and Engadget is hearing some pretty juicy details regarding the Windows 7 based tablet. Apparently, the 10-inch tablet will be sporting a dual-digitizer so that you'll be able to touch your way around the UI or you'll also be able to use a stylus if that's what you want to do. Other rumoured specs for now include an Intel "Oak Trail" Atom CPU, software encryption, remote wipe, and a removable battery. This tablet may actually be a part of their Latitude line-up so it could be perfect for the enterprise or a business environment.

At CES there has been a bunch of tablets which is reminiscent of last year. This time here's an offering from Fujitsu which actually doesn't appear to have a name right now. Specs include a 10.1-inch display, an Intel Atom "Oak Trail" Z670 CPU, 2GB of RAM, dual-cameras, and Windows 7. Details other than this are pretty scarce right now so we'll have to wait until Fujitsu announces more. This tablet will reportedly be available in Q2 of this year but the price is still unknown right now.

The company is said to also be working on an Android "Honeycomb" tablet but we don't know what it will look like right now.

Lenovo may have a few tablets up their sleeve for CES this year but they haven't given up on netbooks quite yet - even though they are, in fact, dying. Today they've revealed the IdeaPad S100 (above) and the IdeaPad S205. The former sports a 10.1-inch display with an Intel Atom dual-core N570 CPU along with integrated GMA 3150 graphics. Other specs include up to 2GB of RAM, up to a 320GB HDD, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth support, a 2MP webcam, USB 2.0 ports, a memory card reader, and Windows 7 Home Basic along with the company's own Quick Start OS which does exactly what it sounds like. This will be available in March at a base price of $329.99.

On the other hand, there's also the IdeaPad S205 (below) which Lenovo outfitted with an 11.6-inch display (1,366 x 768 resolution), an AMD dual-core E-350 CPU, and Radeon HD6310 graphics. Furthermore, you'll also find an HDMI output, optional 3G support, up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, up to a 750GB HDD, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth support, USB 2.0 ports, a memory card reader, an integrated webcam with face recognition, and Windows 7 Home Premium. This will also be available but the price is unknown right now. However, it will be more expensive than the Atom-powered S100 netbook.

We've already heard about the Acer Aspire Revo 3700 before but it's finally been priced and dated. In case you forgot, this nettop features a dual-core Intel Atom D525 1.8GHz CPU, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 500GB HDD, four USB 2.0 ports, VGA / HDMI outputs, WiFi b/g/n support, a mini PCIe slot, a gigabit Ethernet port, and even Nvidia's next-gen Ion graphics. About the price and date, it's available right now and the base model is going for $349. That's a pretty decent price tag for your future HTPC.

Even though notebook and netbook shipments are starting to decrease Asus has just released their latest netbook, the Eee PC 1015PEM. This netbook is riding the new wave with its dual-core Intel Atom N550 CPU. Other specs should be similar to you though, a 10.1-inch LED-backlit display, a 250GB HDD, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, WiFi n support, Bluetooth 3.0, a 1.3MP webcam, a battery life of up to 13 hours, and Windows 7 Starter Edition. It's up on Amazon if you want to scoop one up for $399.

A new dual-core Intel Atom N550 packing netbook is now shipping in the US and it's the Acer Aspire One D255. We've heard about this one before because this is the netbook that has been famous for dual-booting the Android and Windows XP. Unfortunately, this netbook does not do that; instead it's running Windows 7 Starter Edition. Other specs include a 250GB HDD, a 10.1-inch display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, and a 6-cell battery. They've managed to pack all of that into a 2.8-pound body. It's going for $399 so check it out on HSN.

Earlier this month we heard about the HP Mini 5103 netbook. Inside you'll find Intel Atom N455 / N475 CPU options along with the dual-core Atom N550 1.5GHz CPU, which is great. Other specs should include an SSD, a touchscreen display, some integrated Intel graphics, and the Broadcom Crystal HD card. This netbook should be launching sometime next month so maybe we'll be seeing it at IFA.

Asus has just revealed their latest netbook, the Eee PC 1015PEM. This netbook packs the new dual-core Intel Atom N550 1.5GHz CPU along with 2GB of RAM and integrated Intel GMA 3150 graphics. With the dual-core CPU it'll be faster than the netbooks in the past and thankfully the CPU also has support for DDR3 RAM which will also help performance-wise. Right now that's all we know about this netbook and should be hitting the UK this October for the equivalent of $450 USD.

MSI has just announced some tablet news right before things kick off at IFA in September. First up is that their Windows 7 based tablet will actually be delayed until 2011 because they're waiting for Intel to release their Oak Trail Atom line-up at CES 2011. The company mentioned that the current Atom CPUs don't give tablets much battery life and the Oak Trail CPUs can handle Windows 7 a lot better (regarding performance and battery life). Don't worry though. For you Android lovers out there, MSI will be releasing their Tegra 2 packing Android 2.2 tablet later this year, the Wind Pad 110. Yes, it'll have access to an app store.

If you're interested in the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3 netbook then you might be interested in the new one that should be hitting the market soon. This will be the exact same as the old model but it'll feature a faster dual-core Intel Atom N550 1.5GHz CPU which has support for DDR3 RAM. Other specs include a 10.1-inch display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 2.1 support, a 1.3MP webcam, a memory card reader, and Windows 7 Starter Edition. If you live in Australia then you can now pre-order it here for $559 or here for $699. In Australia, electronics are really expensive (compared to the US) so expect it to hit stateside for much cheaper.

Another model of Asus' Eee Box EB1501 has just popped up out of nowhere (they always do) and this one is the EB1501P. This is probably their best one to date sporting Nvidia's Ion 2 graphics, a dual-core Intel Atom D525 CPU, 2GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, HDMI output, WiFi 802.11n / Bluetooth support, an eSATA port, and USB ports. Apparently, this nettop will be hitting the UK in late Q3 / early Q4 for £379.99 ($602 USD). This is actually a great nettop if you'll want to run some basic games - it probably won't be running StarCraft II well.

A netbook you have been waiting for is now up for pre-order. If you've been waiting for the Asus Eee PC 1215N then the wait is almost over. This netbook packs a 12.1-inch LED-backlit display with a 1,366 x 768 resolution, a dual-core Intel Atom D525 1.8GHz CPU, Nvidia Ion 2 graphics, 2GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, WiFi 802.11n support, and Windows 7 Home Premium. You can now pre-order the netbook on ExcaliberPC here for $499 if you want to.

Asus has just mentioned that their Eee PC 1215N netbook is still quite a ways away from hitting the market. This netbook is going to be sporting a 12.1-inch display, an Intel Atom dual-core D525 1.8GHz CPU, and Nvidia's Ion 2 graphics. This netbook will be one of the most powerful netbooks out there and will be shipping in the US on August 23rd. The price tag is said to be below $500 so it'll probably be $499.99 or something like that. It's pretty expensive for a netbook but let's see how things play out.

Another Acer Aspire One netbook is on the way and it should take the D255 moniker. Engadget points out that the D255 netbook should be extremely identical to the D260 but inside you'll find an Intel Atom N550 which is a 1.5GHz dual-core CPU. This could be dual-booting Windows 7 and Android similar to the D260 but that's unknown right now. The price and release date is still TBA so look out for it and the oh-so-important complete spec sheet in the future.

A couple of new Acer Aspire One netbooks have just been announced. Four of them in total but we already know all about the AO721. This netbook is packing an AMD Athlon II Neo K125 CPU along with ATI Radeon HD 4225 graphics. This is going for $429.99 and we've already seen it up on Amazon since last week. Up next is the AO521 netbook which packs typical netbook specs along with an AMD V105 1.2GHz CPU, DDR3 RAM, and ATI Radeon HD 4225 graphics. You'll find this netbook for $349.99.

The next two netbooks are the Aspire One D260 and the AO533 which are both packing Intel Atom CPUs. The D260 packs typical netbook specs as well along with an Atom N450 CPU. This is priced at just under $300. The AO533 has an Atom N475 CPU, DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, and a 6-cell battery. This is going for $330.

Here's yet another tablet from Asus, dubbed the EPad. This is another 10-inch tablet with Windows 7 so it's essentially a netbook without a keyboard. The specs are still unknown, so you can just check out the video below if you want. Not even the Atom CPU inside is known right now, so you'll have to wait a bit longer for that.

It looks like Aava Virta is going to be the first smartphone shipping with an Intel Atom Z600 CPU inside. Thankfully, this handset will also have the Android 2.1 OS along with a 3.8-inch capacitive touchscreen display with a 480 x 864 resolution, quad-band EDGE AT&T 3G connectivity, WiFi / Bluetooth support, a 5MP camera, and a microSD card slot. Targeted at developers, this smartphone will be shipping in Q3 of this year but the price hasn't been mentioned yet.
