Joanna of Engadget gave the new HP Mini 5102 a run and is now publishing her full review of the said netbook. Oh wait, is the HP Mini 5102 still a netbook or not? Looks like its specs tell you that it is a very powerful machine. But then it has a 10-inch screen display and also share some common denominators with other netbooks of its size.
Anyway, Joanna found the HP Mini 5102's design to be almost similar to the HP Mini 5101. Its chassis was made of aluminum and magnesium.
In the keyboard department, the HP Mini 5102 is a full winner with its spill-proof, chicklet keyboard which according to Joanna is one of the best netbook keyboards ever made. It has square matte keys which are firm. Another interesting feature of the HP Mini 5102 is its full multi-touchscreen configuration.
Overall the review highlighted the fact that the HP Mini 5102 is a good secondary machine although its price will make you hesitate in getting it. But performance wise, it's a good buy.
