This is a rather late reportage on last week’s launch of the new line of HP Mini notebooks. It includes an upgrade of their 2133 model via the new HP Mini 2140 and their 1100 PC series which is priced for as low as P18,950. The fashion-conscious will surely like the HP Mini 1100 Vivienne Tam Special Edition specially because it’s in red and has a stylish design of peony blooms. Retailing at P27, 950, HP is highlighting the desirability of this “digital clutch” by saying that only 250 pieces will be available in the Philippine market.
We saw former beauty queen Miriam Quiambao modelling the Mini in its full glory and Cosmopolitan editor Myrza Sison was indeed so lucky to get the gadget in the night’s raffle. I do like the HP Mini and the fact that it’s getting good reviews. Maybe there’s still space for this in the next bonus? hehe. I do believe that something like this will make a good supplementary laptop, if you’re not comfortable carrying your more expensive laptop around because of theincreasing incidence of laptop theft. Take note that this notebook is just about one fourth the price of a Macbook. Plus it’s lighter and smaller too!
Specs for the new HP Mini 1100 include an Intel Atom N270 processor, Windows XP Home operating system, integrated webcam with built-in microphone and 10.1-inch diagonal widescreen display. Not to mention the fact that it’s less than an inch thin and is ultra-lightweight (a little more than a kilo)
Speaking of red, I really like my new DLSR bag from TechTote. The good thing is that I can use the bag for storing my lunch box and/or make-up when am not bringing the camera along.Only P799 from Powerbooks.
how about the battery life? i’m expecting six-cell sana. mine lasts for 2 hours lang. 🙁
Yun na nga. Mukhang a little more than two hours lang din ito, huh. Three-cell 🙁
Oooh, so the HP Mini now comes with Win XP? Dati kasi Vista ang pre-installed OS kaya na-turn off ako and went with Acer instead. But now that they come with XP… so tempting! Though I agree, the three cell battery is iffy.. I like my 6-cell battery!
Hi Nina. Yes I think Win XP Home Edition ang OS ng HP Mini 1100. Acer has six- cell? Hmm, the choices are getting harder 😛
I disagree. Someone stole my vivienne tam HP and masakit parin sa bulsa. 🙁 That’s the problem with small computers, I’m afraid, they’re just easier to steal.
