Notebooks.com Hands-On With the New HP Mini 1000

"HP is finally getting into the consumer netbook game with the Pavilion Mini 1000, an Atom-powered computer that runs Windows XP or Ubuntu with an HP customized user interface. I got a chance to sit down with HP's Kevin Wentzel last week and shot a bunch of video and photos. The first version of the HP Mini 1000 features a 10.2-inch glossy display and weighs in at 2.4 pounds. A 2.25-pound version with an 8.9-inch display will be coming soon."
Xavier from Notebooks.com was fortunate enough to have some hands-on time with the new HP Mini 1000, and he has a lot of great information on it, including two videos - the one above, and one on the Mobile Internet Edition (MIE) that shows the customized Linux user interface.
