Samsung Touch Of Color T260HD 25.5-Inch LCD HDTV Monitor

2009-05-05T20:03:00.000-07:00

Samsung T260HD 25.5-Inch LCD HDTV Monitor is a great way to get the most out of your PC as well as watch your favorite 1080p HDTV broadcasts. It features an embedded DTV tuner that enables you to watch digital HD broadcasts without a special receiving set. And with six image input terminals, you can connect several pieces of digital equipment to the T260HD and use them simultaneously. Two HDMI connections make your monitor a multimedia centerpiece. Additionally, SRS TruSurround XT is embedded to improve audio performance.

The contrast between light and dark colors on the screen is what makes images stand out. The bigger the difference between light and dark images, the more vibrant images will appear. With an amazing dynamic contrast ratio of 10,000:1 you’ll enjoy sharper image quality that’s sure to catch your eye. You’ll also make a style statement with Samsung’s new Touch of Color design, which features a hint of color naturally blended into the traditional piano black frame.

The T260HD is designed to be extremely efficient and uses up to a third less power than other monitors in its class. The unique SoftPower off function lets you put the monitor in standby mode right away, using just 0.3 W of power. It comes with a monitor stand that can tilt up to 20 degrees for optimal viewing and a full-feature remote control. The monitor’s speakers reside underneath the screen and provide a total of 6 watts of audio power (3 watts per channel).

Dell Inspiron Mini IM12-2869 12.1-Inch Alpine White Netbook

2009-05-05T19:53:00.000-07:00

The Dell Inspiron Mini 12 is a bit confused. It packs an Intel Atom processor, which makes it a netbook. But it also has a 12-inch screen, which exceeds our definition of what a netbook can be. On one hand it's a natural evolution of the genre in an ever growing screen size arms race, topping the 10-inchers like a razor company adding another blade. On the other, the Inspiron Mini 12 reaches a size and pricepoint that makes it comparable to far more capable systems from Dell in the same pricerange.

But rather than focus on philosophy, I'll say that the Inspiron Mini 12 feels better than any netbook I've used to date...even if it cheated a bit in the process.

Design
The build of the Mini 12 is excellent. Even with the extended battery, it feels light and easy to toss around. But it's more than the weight that makes it so comfortable to carry. Its bottom has a sandpapery texture, which grips a hand with confidence.
You'll also notice that the side profile is tapered along the bottom edges. I don't know that it makes any difference in how the computer actually rests on a table, but it looks nice enough.
The Mini 12's keyboard is still not full-sized, but it's adequate to feel comfortable and satisfyingly clicky. Meanwhile, the trackpad does leave something to be desired. The texture is simply off to me, simultaneously smooth and bumpy, it almost feels like a skin rash. The right and left mouse buttons below tend to recess when pressed more than any laptop I've ever used. It's and off-putting sensation at first, but I grew to appreciate the mechanical feel.
As for the screen, it's a luxury to use. The experience is completely different than an 8.9-inch display that you find in most standard netbooks nowadays (including own Dell's Mini 9). There's decent color, solid contrast, and sharp 1280X800 resolution...but just moderate brightness. The max setting was just adequately bright, which considering the fact that LCDs fade with time, is something to keep in mind-especially if you like to fry your eyes like I do.

The biggest surprise of the testing had to be how cool the system ran. The bottom didn't heat my lap at all, feeling only lukewarm to the touch. I can only assume that the larger case mixed with a low wattage processor dissipates heat very well. However the engineering worked out, I'll take it.
But if there was one thing I would change, it would be the charging and power light. It sits on the hinge in a prominent position that you can see even when closed, but it's far too dim, and it's viewable from a very limited range of angles. Put it this way, for the first day I had the system, I thought Dell had omitted this light altogether.

Ultimately though, it's just a nice looking machine that feels great to put your hands on, a far cry from the humble original Eee and something you'll be proud to pull out at board meetings and pretentious coffee shops alike.

Function
So here's the rub: While I love the Dell design, the hardware/software combination has slowed the Mini 12 to barely usable levels. The model I tested was the $550 base system with a 1.33GHz Atom, 1GB of RAM and 40GB hard drive. That system should be alright for XP (though we'd love to see a 2GB RAM upgrade option), but it's just not enough to power Vista. And you can only buy the system with Vista. The system crawls with constant multi-second stalls, and effective multitasking is pretty much impossible. Sadly, there's not much more to say on the topic. Simple mental math tells us that this system shouldn't be running Vista as it skirts the minimum requirements of Home Basic, and our real world testing shows us the same thing. Of course, Vista alone doesn't mean you should pass over the Mini 12. Just expect to reinstall the OS with the purchase and come to terms with the fact that your paying licensing rights for an OS that you won't use.

Battery Life
I tested the battery life through MPEG4 video playback with the default processing settings and the screen at max brightness (max, to me, is the ideal viewing brightness).

Base 3-cell Battery - 1 hour, 20 minutes
Extended 6-cell battery - 4 hours, 2 minutes

At a glance, this 12-inch Dell system looks to about as power efficient as the 10-inch MSI Wind, though it loses about 20 minutes on the 3-cell battery (we're guessing through a combination of more computational rigorous testing methods and a larger screen). Keep in mind that if you expect to hang out around a plug, the AC adapter is quite light, lacking any big power brick to speak of.

Back to Square One
Without opening the Dell Inspiron Mini 12 box, I would have expected exactly what I encountered-a solidly built system that shouldn't be running Vista. But even loaded with XP, and even in the $600 configuration that we'd recommend (1.6GHz Atom, 60GB hard drive, 1GB RAM and 6-cell battery), the system still begs the question of value. A slightly smaller, equally powered MSI Wind will run you $350. And you can get a slightly bigger Core2Duo Dell laptop for $600 easy.

It's true. From a performance standpoint alone, there's almost no question that the Dell Mini 12 isn't "worth it." But if you don't want to squint at a screen yet you still want a system that breaks the 3-pound barrier, then it's hard not to be a little infatuated with the Mini 12. Just rip Vista off that thing as quickly as possible. [Dell]

A truly bizarre day to announce a new notebook, Dell’s Inspiron Mini 12 is officially the most gargantuan netbook on the block. I wasn’t exactly blown away by it when I scoped it briefly a couple months ago, but Laptop was sufficiently impressed in its more in-depth hands on to compare it to the MacBook Air and Voodoo Envy—but you know, 0.2 inches thicker, more ports and you know, a thousand dollars cheaper at only $599.

Under the hood, it’s a standard netbook kit—1.6GHz Atom (though the more energy efficient next-gen one that lets it live for up to three hours on a 3-cell battery), smallish 40, 60 or 80GB hard drive, not a whole lotta RAM—though you’ve got a full-sized keyboard and 1280×800 12-inch screen. Unfortunately, it’s only available with Vista at launch (which, also oddly, is only in Japan initially). Since Vista historically runs like garbage on these things, holding out through the late November debut here for the XP and Ubuntu variants coming by year’s end would probably be more prudent.

That said, the Mini 12 is definitely an interesting little experiment from Dell—a mutant mashup of netbook and notebook that might hit some heretofore undiscovered sweet spot, or simply look verrry attractive to some given the current economic climate. Update: Full press release below—apparently it’s a Twitter machine too:

Slim, Stylish and Well-Connected: Introducing the Dell Inspiron Mini 12

* New Addition to the Dell Inspiron Mini Line Expands Personalization Options
* Available First in Japan Through Bic Camera, Kojima and Sofmap Stores
* Includes Windows Vista Home Basic, Webcam and Bluetooth

ROUND ROCK, Texas—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Dell today introduced the Inspiron™ Mini 12, a small, easy-to-carry Internet companion that you can fine tune to fit your specific needs and deeds. Like its counterpart the Inspiron Mini 9, the Mini 12 is ideal for teens, tweens, travelers and “Tweeters” to surf the Web1, chat with friends, blog, stream content, upload photos or enjoy online videos, music and games.

The Inspiron Mini 12 is available initially only in Japan through Bic Camera, Kojima and Sofmap stores and other retail outlets. It will launch online globally by late November with configurations starting under $600 (U.S.). Ubuntu and Windows XP® operating systems also will be available before the end of the year.

Dell Inspiron Mini IM12-2868 12.1-Inch Obsidian Black Netbook

2009-05-03T23:10:00.000-07:00

Dell is one of the top laptop manufacturers in the world. So it’s no surprise to see them enter the netbook market, and you can be sure that they are in it to win it. Mini 12 is a larger version of Mini 9 that is not only capable but very portable at the same time. The 12 inch screen that you get with your netbook is more than easy on the eye. Mini 12 is known for being the perfect netbook for tweeters. It’s the perfect gadget for those who spend a lot of time on the Internet. The CPU is more than capable and you get more than enough memory to get things done on your Dell netbook. The Intel Atom Z520 uses a brand new 45nm (nanometer) design structure with new hafnium-infused circuitry–which reduces electrical current leakage in transistors to conserve energy. You do get only 3 hours of battery but you can always buy a 6 cell battery.

I find the device to be very well designed. In addition to a 12.1″ screen, you also get TrueLife high-gloss technology that reduces the glare you get on this netbook. The Wi-Fi support and blue-tooth let you get more work done without worrying about wires. And if you want to conduct video-conferences while you are on the go, you can easily do so using the 1.3 MP camera available on this netbook. The 3 USB 2.0 ports make it easy to connect more accessories as you need them.

What I was impressed about with Dell Mini 12 is the online storage that you get with Box.net. You can expand your storage to 25 GB if you prefer. This feature allows you to put your precious files online and protect them against hard drive accidents. Dell Inspiron Mini 12 weighs only 2.72 lbs, which makes this netbook a dream come true for tweeters on the go.

Verdict: B+. Overall, Dell Mini IM12-2868 is cool netbook that makes a great Internet gadget. It’s light and very well designed. The battery could be much better. I also like to see a faster CPU. And the price is a bit on the high side. Nevertheless, Dell Mini 12 is a solid choice if you are looking for a top netbook.

Dell Inspiron Mini IM12-2871 12.1-Inch Promise Pink Netbook

2009-05-03T22:56:00.000-07:00

A larger sibling to Dell's Inspiron Mini 9, the Inspiron Mini 12 (model IM12-2871) in promise pink features a larger 12.1-inch screen with a 1280 x 800-pixel high-definition resolution. It's ideal for teens, tweens, travelers and "Tweeters" to surf the Web, chat with friends (both via text and using the integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam), stream video and audiocontent, and upload on-the-go photos to blogs or social networking sites. Standard built-in Wi-Fi means quick and easy wireless internet access to hotspots in the home, on campus, in a local coffee shop, in the office or at a conference.

Super thin and ultra-portable.
The Inspiron Mini 12 features an intuitive Dell-developed custom home screen interface that is designed to make it easy to find what you're looking for. Intuitive icons link directly to groups of similar applications, like games, Web and entertainment, and favorite web links for quick access. Plus, the home screen can be personalized, putting your favorites front and center.

A bright 12.1-inch glossy display is designed to be able to present web sites without a lot of left-right scrolling, and the keyboard is large and easy to navigate. Other features include a 40 GB hard drive, 1 GB of RAM (533 MHz; maximum capacity), integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, three USB ports, 3-in-1 memory card reader, and up to 3 hours of battery life.

It comes preinstalled with the Microsoft Windows XP Home operating system, which offers more experienced users an enhanced and innovative experience that incorporates Windows Live features like Windows Live Messenger for instant messaging and Windows Live Mail for consolidated email accounts on your desktop.

Power-Sipping Processor
Newly designed from the ground up, the Intel Atom Z520 uses a brand new 45nm (nanometer) design structure with new hafnium-infused circuitry--which reduces electrical current leakage in transistors--to conserve even more energy and give you more time away from the wall outlet. The Intel Atom Z520 provides a 1.3 GHz CPU speed with a 533 MHz front-side bus (FSB) and 512 KB L2 cache--which uses just 2 watts of power. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.) It supports Intel's 64-bit computing architecture, which can allow the use of extended virtual and physical memory with compatible 64-bit software, as well as Intel's Hyper-Threading technology for speedier multitasking.

Display and Audio
The Inspiron Mini 12 has a 12.1-inch LCD screen with TrueLife high-gloss/anti-reflective technology, which features a sharp contrast finish that's well suited to immersive 3D games and watching videos. This notebook has a single speaker for mono audio playback.

Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
This notebook has an integrated 54g wireless LAN that's fully compatible with 802.11b/g wireless networks. With the integrated Bluetooth connectivity, you can communicate and synchronize with Bluetooth-enabled peripherals such as PDAs and cell phones as well as use Bluetooth-enabled headsets for handsfree video chats. It comes with the following external connectors:

ASUS Eee PC 1000HE 10-inch Netbook Subnotebook Laptop PC

2009-05-03T21:17:00.000-07:00

The ASUS Eee PC 1000HE is more than just a small upgrade of their 1000 series netbooks. The system does include the new Intel Atom N280 although it doesn't really boost performance over the older N270. The real improvements come from the large six cell battery that give it amazing long running time and the redesigned keyboard that puts the right shift key in a more logical place. With its attractice price tag, 802.11n wireless and Bluetooth, this certainly is a very feature rich netbook even if it weight over three pounds.

Pros

* Extremely Long Battery Life
* 802.11n Wireless and Bluetooth Support
* Improved Keyboard Layout

Cons

* Atom N280 Does Not Provide Any Real Performance Boost
* Relatively Heavy for Netbook

Description

* Intel Atom N280 Mobile Processor
* 1GB DDR2 Memory (2GB Maximum)
* 160GB 5400rpm SATA Hard Drive
* 10-inch WXVGA (1024x600) Wide LCD With 1.3 Megapixel Webcam
* Intel GMA 950 Integrated Graphics
* Fast Ethernet, 802.11b/g/n Wireless, Bluetooth

Guide Review - ASUS Eee PC 1000HE 10-inch Netbook Subnotebook Laptop PC

Feb 25 2009 - One of the biggest complaints about the Eee PC 1000 series netbooks has been the keyboard layout. ASUS has changed this with the new 1000HE making the placement of the right shift key more traditional and a very welcome design change.

The big improvement of the Eee PC 1000HE though is the battery. Many of the previous Eee PC 1000 models have only shipped with three cell batteries giving them a running time no different from traditional laptop computers. The 1000HE comes equipped with a sizable six cell battery that they claim can provide up to 9.5 hours of running time. A more realistic running time is around 7 hours without requiring it being plugged in.

Many people may be excited to see the Eee PC 1000HE comes with the newer Intel Atom N280 processor. It is supposedly faster thanks to its higher bus speed and slightly higher overall clock speed. In real world usage, most people won't notice any performance difference between it and a similarly equipped N270. Much of this probably comes from the fact that the system uses the same 945 chipset with its GMA 950 integrated graphics that still prevent it from supporting even 720p HD video.

One area that the ASUS Eee PC 1000HE certainly has an advantage is in the connectivity. While it doesn't have the cellular networking, it does come equipped with the faster 802.11n wireless networking. Add to this a built-in Bluetooth adapater and the 1000HE has the ability to easily connect to wireless peripherals without the need of a dongle.

The downside to all these features and the very long battery life is a much heavier weight. It is one of the few netbooks that weighs over three pounds. At least the overall dimensions are still small with smooth lines rather than a bulky battery pack.
