This wouldn't be the first time a company repackages old routers for the new year, but to be fair, there haven't been many technological advances recently for them to do much else. <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/belkin">Belkin</a> happens to be one such company, which has just announced five N-series 802.11n WiFi routers ranging from $39.99 (N150 at up to 150Mbps) all the way up to $129.99 (N750 at up to 450Mbps with dual band and USB). Frankly, a quick glance at the specifications doesn't show much of an improvement from <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/24/belkin-surf-share-play-and-play-max-app-equipped-routers-may-f/">last year's models</a>, and that "exclusive" MultiBeam range-extending technology <strike>seems to be just a fancy name for </strike><a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/MIMO"><strike>MIMO</strike></a>. Still, you gotta give it to Belkin's designers for the new chassis design -- we much prefer this rounded look to the previous boxes. You can now grab an N150, N300, or N600 DB in the shops, whereas the N450 and flagship N750 DB will be showing up in mid-May. See press release after the break for the full details.<br />
<br />
<strong>Update: </strong>Belkin got in touch to finally shed some light on <a href="http://www.belkin.com/pressRoom/releases/uploads/042911_NewRoutersTechnology.html">MultiBeam</a>. Essentially, this is a new antenna technology that beefs up the routers' MIMO signal with a 6db gain, as opposed to just 1.5db on traditional onboard "trace" antennas. Another feature delivered by MultiBeam is an improved, apple-shaped coverage pattern, which apparently bests the standard donut-shaped version. The high end N450 and N750 also come with "implicit beam forming" that focuses the radio signal beam onto client devices for more reliable connection. Let's see if the guinea pigs can prove these claims.<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/27/belkin-repackages-old-wireless-routers-for-its-new-n-series-line/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Belkin repackages old wireless routers for its new N-series lineup (updated)</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/27/belkin-repackages-old-wireless-routers-for-its-new-n-series-line/">Belkin repackages old wireless routers for its new N-series lineup (updated)</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 27 Apr 2011 11:37:00 EST.

The big technology news out of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/worldcup">World Cup</a> this year may be <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/sony-and-fifa-release-more-details-on-world-cup-2010-3d-broadcas/">3D</a> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/espn-3d-will-be-on-comcast-in-time-for-the-2010-world-cup/">broadcasts</a>, but any sporting event of this size wouldn't be complete without some product tie-ins, and it looks like Samsung has now come through on that front with a little help from Adidas. They've announced this new Samsung N150 Plus Adidas Special Edition netbook, which is apparently identical to Samsung's regular <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/n150">N150 netbook</a>, with the exception of an Adidas design on the lid, and the addition of a Bluetooth 3.0 module -- not to mention a matching mouse and "gift pouch." No word on pricing or availability just yet, but we have a sneaking suspicion it will be limited to places that play "football" instead of "soccer."<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/samsung-announces-adidas-branded-n150-plus-netbook/">Samsung announces Adidas-branded N150 Plus netbook</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Mon, 07 Jun 2010 11:02:00 EST.

Trying to add some brightness to its well stocked <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/03/samsung-hops-on-atom-n450-bandwagon-with-n210-n220-n150-and-nb/">Pine Trail netbook line up</a>, Sammy has gone and painted the $379 10.1-inch N150 in Flamingo Pink, Bermuda Blue and Caribbean Yellow, though kept its internal 1.6GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, 250GB hard drive and 1GB RAM unprimed. Interestingly, in some countries the netbook has acquired Samsung's affordable mobile phone <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/tag/Corby/">Corby brand</a>, though here in the U.S. that doesn't seem to be the case. We'd probably just stick with the black hue, but that doesn't mean we couldn't go for some sort of tropical-flavor candy right about now.</div>

<a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Samsung/">Samsung</a>'s just busted out some more news from MWC, and one of the hottest items on offer are its LTE netbooks -- the first ever. Sammy's showing off the previously launched 10.1-inch <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/N150/">N150</a>, NB30, and N220 -- all with the same specs otherwise, but now packing the company's own, in-house designed Kalmia LTE modem chipset. There's no word yet as to when we can expect to see one of these bad boys on the market (though we certainly <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/samsung-and-teliasonera-bringing-lte-to-vikings-in-2010/">expect them to show up this year</a>) -- so far, Samsung's only saying it'll deploy them "according to service schedule and market demand." You don't say? Check the full press release which is after the break (which includes each model's specs).<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/14/samsung-shows-off-lte-packing-netbooks-at-mwc/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Samsung shows off LTE-packing netbooks at MWC</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/14/samsung-shows-off-lte-packing-netbooks-at-mwc/">Samsung shows off LTE-packing netbooks at MWC</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sun, 14 Feb 2010 14:02:00 EST.

Keeping the news flowing <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/03/lenovo-leaks-thinkpad-edge-x100e-t410s-w510-t510-and-more-ahe/">fast</a> and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/03/dell-toshiba-and-gateway-core-i3-laptops-get-revealed-early-jo/">furious</a>, Samsung has come out with a quartet of new netbooks, distinguishable primarily by their battery life. The N210 and 220 take the lead with a purported 12 hours of "connected mobility," while the NB30 (11 hours) and N150 (8.5 hours) are none too shabby either. The N150 differentiates itself with an "integrated hinge," while the NB30 focuses on durability with a HDD protection sensor and a water-tight seal that protects the netbook from up to 50cc of water. Still, the machines do share a lot, including an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/asus-eee-pc-1005pe-review/">Atom N450</a> at their heart, and a 10.1-inch anti-reflective screen, <em>plus</em> -- you'd be better sit down for this -- mark- and scratch-resistant casing. Does this mean the end of the fingerprint-loving netbook? We can only hope so.

<em>"The Atom is dead, long live the Atom." </em>The long awaited <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/hp-mini-210-spied-with-pinetrail-cpu-found-cavorting-on-retail/">upgrade</a> of Intel's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/asus-eee-pc-1005pe-review/">netbook platform</a> is <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/fujitsu-mh380-netbook-features-pine-trail-secondary-scrolling-t/">gathering pace</a>, and latest to join the ranks is Samsung with its 3G and GPS-equipped N150. Powered by Qualcomm's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/gobi">Gobi 2000</a> chip, the connectivity on this lite laptop will not go lacking, though Sammy disappoints with the rest of its specs. According to a very early listing on Neobits, the 10.1-inch screen sticks with a now barely acceptable 1,024 x 600 resolution, while RAM and storage are limited to the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-outs-n130-and-n140-netbooks-incites-groans-of-disappoin/">eons old</a> 1GB and 160GB, respectively. Windows 7 Starter Edition, a 4,400mAh battery, and the typical 3 USB ports, 802.11b/g/n wireless and a 3-in-1 card reader fill out the rest of the unremarkable data sheet. Still, the presently listed price is under $374, which is right on par with the N140, meaning complaints are allowed (but should be kept to a low hush of disgruntlement, ya dig?).<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/samsung-n150-brings-3g-and-gps-to-pine-trail-party-spotted-at-f/">Samsung N150 brings 3G and GPS to Pine Trail party, spotted at FCC and retail sites</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Tue, 22 Dec 2009 07:01:00 EST.
