HP introduces cheaper dv2, dv3, and dv6 laptops, fantastically ugly dv6 Artist Edition
HP's just kicked out a slew of updates to its laptop lines, and thankfully the biggest news is that they've gotten cheaper. The HP dv2z brings the low end of the 12.1-inch AMD Neo ultraportable down to $599, while the larger Intel-based dv3t is now $649. The dv6 gets two new editions, including the pictured $949 dv6z Artist Edition 2 preloaded with a bunch of Corel art software and a $649 dv6t base model that thankfully loses the awful lid artwork. Seriously, we know HP had to use the design after it won the HP / MTV Notebook Design Contest, but we just don't think too many people want to rock the"surfing peacock" look. There are also a bunch of new eco-friendly printers if you're into that sort of thing -- hit the read link for the lowdown.
HP Pavilion dv3t hits the streets, starts at $799
Right on the heels of Dell's mainstream Studio 15 offering, HP has the Pavilion dv3t all tidied up and ready for retail. It's a 16:9 widescreen 13.3-inch sort of number, with Core 2 Duo T6400 under the hood, a Blu-ray option and a pickable 9-cell battery which boasts up to 7 hours of battery. There's also a webcam, up to 500GB of hard drive, and two options for colors: Espresso black (pictured after the break) and Moonlight white (above). Prices start at $799, but there's plenty of room to grow.
