More HP netbook models leaked

They're not actually available for purchase yet, but bargain-hunting web site LogicBuy has apparently spilled the beans on a couple of previously unannounced HP mini-laptops. This comes on the heels of HP uploading support documents for the unannounced HP Mini 210.

Here's what's new:

  • HP Mini 210HD – This model will have the same basic specs as the Mini 210, including a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 CPU and GMA 3150 graphics. But it will also pack the Broadcom Crystal HD video accelerator for handling HD video with resolutions up to 1080p. LogicBuy says it will retail for about $329.99.
  • Compaq Mini CQ10 – This low-end model will sell for just $259.99. It also has the new 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 CPU, GMA 3150 graphics, and a 10.1 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display. It comes with a 3 or 6 cell battery, 802.11b/g WiFi, and up to 250GB hard drive (which would seem to imply that Windows 7 Starter is at least an option. No word on Windows XP availability).

LogicBuy also suggests that the base price for the HP Mini 210 will be $279.99.

Engadget has a roundup of other previously unannounced laptops and desktops from HP.
