Me thinks Impress might have goofed on the CPU OR there are multiple flavors of this Tablet. When I hit up HP's Japan site, I saw mention of Core2Duo, not Celeron. Then again, I'm relying on a Babelfish translation. ;) This is the same general tabby as the HP 2710p here in the U.S. and that one offers up a 1.2 GHz Core2Duo.
"Also it is possible the processor besides the fact that it can select up-to-date Intel Core2 Duo processor T7100/T7500, to select the Intel Celeron® processor 540 which, is superior in cost performance to hold down introduction cost."
Differences with 2710p: HDD: 2710p uses 1.8" PATA 4200 rpm drives. 2210b uses normal SATA 5400 rpm drives Size: 2710p (290.00 x 212.00 x 28.20 mm), 2210b (306×228×32-37.4 mm) design is obviously different, 2710p is convertible tablet with swivel screen. batteries seem to be incompatible as well. Optical drive: Engadget is wrong here, it does contain an integrated optical drive as an option. http://h50146.www5.hp.com/products/portables/2210b_ct/detail.html (you can barely work out the DVD logo) ftp://ftp.jpn.hp.com/doc/catalog/notebook/jpt07173-01.pdf (shows the drive tray opened)

so, I'd say they are pretty different machines.

forgot to mention that another difference is that 2710p uses ULV CPU, like U2400/U2500, while 2210b uses normal voltage Core2/celeron cpus.
