3G plus netbook at bargain price

I haven't seen mobile communications or 3G service providers in Australia sell contracts with netbooks. Smartphones, absolutely, but nothing larger as yet. In Taiwan, the Kinpo NO3V 11.6" netbook is available with a 2 year 3G contract. The specs read like a familiar recipe: VIA Nano 1.3GHz, VX800 single chip solution, 160GB HDD, webcam, Ethernet, car reader, USB, etc. With the two year contract the price is really a great deal - $US285 (approx). Here's a video review of the Kinpo:

More on the Kinpo

More news is out about the Kinpo netbook set to hit the shelves in China very soon. The screen size is 11.6-inch. So is it a netbook or a notebook? I think anything below 12 inches is a netbook.
"Coming to provide users with an alternative to the increasingly popular Intel Atom-based netbooks, the new Kinpo N03 is equipped with one of VIA's latest CPUs, a Nano processor featuring a core speed of 1.2 or 1.3GHz."-Softpedia.

VIA Nano chosen for new WiMax equipped netbook in China


Kinpo has revealed a new 11.3 inch netbook that features a VIA Nano processor and built-in 3G/WiMax which matches the Chinese standards. The netbook will apparently be available with a wide variety of configurations, including a choice of Windows Xp or Vista, hard drive sizes and up to 2GB of RAM.


"The company's choice of a Via Nano microprocessor over Intel's popular Atom processor shows the battle between the two processor maker continues to rage in the netbook arena."-PCWorld.com.
