As expected, Asus announced yet another Eee PC netbook today and it's the 1015PW. Asus hyped up the launch for this one a bit too much, mentioning that this would make waves in the industry but all it made was a ripple in the water. The best part about this netbook is the textured paint job on the lid, which is likely what the company was talking about because it's quite unique. This netbook will be available in gold, pink, and purple models.

On the specifications front you get: a 10.1-inch 1,024 x 600 resolution display, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB / 320GB HDD, and a dual-core Intel Atom N550 1.5GHz CPU. Price and release date is unknown right now, but I can't imagine a bunch of people picking this one up. Netbooks are just about dead at this point.

A fairly new netbook from Asus has just been made official and it's the Eee PC 1015PN. This netbook sports a 10.1-inch display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, a dual-core Atom N550 CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 250GB HDD, Nvidia Ion 2 graphics, Optimus, and Windows 7. Apparently, you'll get as much as 9.5 hours of battery life which beats out the new MacBook Air's quite a bit but they're really not in the same league. This one's going for $429 right now so you can check it out on Asus if you want.

Asus is still alive in the netbook game with yet another Eee PC, the 1015PN. This netbook features a 10-inch display, a dual-core Intel Atom N550 CPU, and Nvidia's Ion 2 graphics. Other specs are just about standard so there's no point in me spitting them out again. If you're interested then you can check it out on Amazon for $429.99.

Samsung may have their overpriced Galaxy Tab device but they haven't given up on netbooks yet. Today they announced the Samsung NF310 which sports the same design as the NF210 that the company already has. This netbook sports a 10.1-inch display with a 1,366 x 768 resolution, Intel integrated graphics, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, WiFi b/g/n support, a 6-cell battery, Windows 7 Starter Edition, and most importantly the dual-core Intel Atom N550 1.5GHz CPU. This netbook will be available this season for $399 so it's not a bad deal.

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.

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 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.
