Specs: Intel Atom N450 CPU, 1GB RAM, 250GB HDD, 6-cell battery and Windows 7 Starter.
After Intel officially launched the new Atom N450 Pine Trail processor, a whole bunch of Pine Trail Netbooks start to show up. Below are the Pine Trail netbooks that have been discovered so far.
1. Asus Eee PC 1005P, 1005PE, 1001P
We already know that Asus is coming up with 2 new models of 10-inch netbook called the Eee PC 1005P and Eee PC 1005PE, which will both be running on the new Intel Atom Pine Trail processor. Today, Asus UK announced another model called the Eee PC 1001P. While both the Eee PC 1005P and 1005PE is the Pinetrail version of the the popular Eee PC 1005HA, the Eee PC 1001P would no doubt be the Pinetrail version of the faux carbon fiber adorned 1001HA which never made it to the US. The specs for the 1001P includes a 10.1-inch 1024 x 600 display, Atom N450 (1.66GHz) processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD and 1.1kg weight.
2. Dell Mini 10
Dell will be updating the Dell Mini 10 with the Pineview Atom N450 processor. Along with the processor upgrade, Dell will also be making a few improvement to its Inspiron Mini 10: a textured palm wrest area that is more fingerprint-resistant, and the 6-cell battery that will no longer stick out horribly. Dell has decided to drop the multi-touch feature on its touchpad though. The updated Pine Trail Dell Mini 10 will go on sale in the US on January 5th at $299, and globally on January 7th.
3. MSI Wind U130, U135, U140 and U160
According to Netbook Choice, MSI is set to launch its own range of Intel Pine Trail Atom netbooks including the Wind U130, U135, U140 and U160 models. The U130 and U135 models are expected to be similar to the U100 but with a larger touchpad. The U140 is said to use the same chassis as the U123. The U160 will come in a super skinny chassis. Whether this means it is a CULV ultra-thin or fanless Pineview Atom model is unknown at this stage.
4. HP Mini 210
The HP Mini 210 will be the replacement for the existing Mini 110 and, will be powered by Intel’s new PineTrail platform. eCost, an online retailer, has created a number of product pages for the new Mini 210, with prices ranging from $321.99 to $398.99. From the product page, we can see that each model will come with a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 CPU, Intel GMA 3150 graphics, and a 10.1 inch flush glass display.

That’s it for now.. This is probably the post with most new netbook announcement.. and we are still expecting more Pine Trail netbooks to show up in the coming weeks.
The MSI Wind U100 Plus which was released earlier this year is a refined version of the MSI Wind U100, the first netbook from the company. It is basically a modest upgrade to its predecessor. Both the original MSI Wind U100 and the PLUS version have the same keyboard, case design, and screen. The only difference is that the PLUS version has a slightly faster processor. The company replaces the Intel Atom N270 CPU (1.6GHz and 533MHz FSB) with an N280 processor (1.66GHz and 667MHz FSB) on the PLUS version.
The full specification of the MSI Wind U100 PLUS is as follow:
The classic MSI Wind U100 was the first 10-inch netbook that hit the market, and its performance is already pretty good at that time. The MSI Wind U100 PLUS makes it even better. Check out the videos below for an overview and gaming test on the MSI Wind U100 PLUS.
