Samsung's technicolor N150 netbook gets Verizon-powered 3G
Recently, about the only thing worth getting excited about regarding the Samsung N150 was the plethora of colors that its casing could be ordered in. Now, though, the little thing has been finally been updated to include the 3G modem it's always promised, and is ready to connect up to Verizon Wireless. Sure, it isn't the LTE model that was spied at MWC -- that is still a few months off, at least -- but it does mean there's yet another option out there for road warriors who like little lappys. Some bad news, though: this model appears to be only available in black, but we do dig red highlights.
Samsung's N150 netbook picks up some Corby branding, Starburst color
Spotted first crawling its way through the FCC, then on the floors of CES and most recently at WMC with some LTE inside we're going to go ahead and say the Samsung N150 has earned its new stripes, err rainbow colors. Trying to add some brightness to its well stocked Pine Trail netbook line up, 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 Corby brand, 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.
Samsung N150 brings 3G and GPS to Pine Trail party, spotted at FCC and retail sites
"The Atom is dead, long live the Atom." The long awaited upgrade of Intel's netbook platform is gathering pace, and latest to join the ranks is Samsung with its 3G and GPS-equipped N150. Powered by Qualcomm's Gobi 2000 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 eons old 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?).
