It may indicate the much desired refresh is on the way but those who have been looking at the HP 2133 Mini-note from afar should be aware it’s now available for $299 on Amazon. It’s showing as in stock and shipping so you can grab one of these low-end Mini-notes for under $300 and that is a pretty good deal. Here are the specs you get for your $299:
- Max 2 GB RAM (includes 512 MB)
- Suse Linux Desktop
- 4 GB solid-state flash memory (NAND) storage
- 1 ExpressCard/54 slot (also supports ExpressCard/34)
- 1 Secure Digital memory card slot
- 1 headphone/line-out and 1 microphone
- 1 VGA monitor port
- 2 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals–from digital cameras to MP3 players
- 1 RJ-45 for 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
Thanks to Gear Diary for finding this one!
