HCL has released a new 3G netbook in India known as the HCL ME 06. It's Energy Star 5.0 tested and certified for you environmental nuts and runs an old-school Atom-N270-with-Windows-XP combo.
The new netbook comes with pretty standard features – 160 GB HDD, 1 GB RAM, a 10.1-inch 1024 x 600 pixel screen, 6-cell battery and Intel 945 chipset. It has solid port selection as well – LAN, a Kensington lock port, and 2 USB ports.
The 3G HCL ME 06 comes with a few applications for common security tasks – LOCK ME for preventing data theft, ENCRYPT ME for data encryption, SECURE ME to lock an application and SPLIT ME to share files. It's hard to imagine what those utilities look like in the XP user interface, but they sound useful.
You can get this thing online for Rs 21,640 – around $465 USD – with a 1-year warranty and free MTV netbook bag.
