Rogers is the first mobile carrier in Canada to offer up a subsidized netbook in the country and it’s a pretty good looking one at that. The HP Mini boasts of a 10.1-inch display, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, one of the best keyboards in the market, WiFi, and most important of all, also comes with embedded 3.5G connectivity. This basically allows you to connect to the internet via Rogers’ 7.2Mbps network which is now available in 25 top markets in Canada stretching form Victoria to Halifax.
Rogers’ HP Mini 110 is available at Future Shop and Best Buy retail outlets for $299.99 on a 2-year contract. Meanwhile, Rogers’ wireless data plans for internet ready netbooks start at a reasonable $25 plus additional $6.95 system access fee.
