Gateway is about to launch a new series of netbooks with a preliminary offering of four laptops that range from the diminutive 11-inches to the large 16-inches. They will all be coming with Intel Core processors, with the most powerful being powered by a Core i7. Labeled the NS series, it will be offering the following models: the NS10, NS30, NS41 and NS51.
The smallest of the four, and the first we have information on, is the Gateway NS10, an 11-inch netbook that comes with either a low power Intel Core i3-330UM, a Core i5-430UM, a Core i5-520UM, or a Core i5-540UM. That's quite a few choices for a netbook and rest assured that other models in the series will have the same or better options. The NS series netbooks will also support DDR3 memory, adding more power to the punch. The NS10 can have its memory upgraded up to 4 gigs and that's pretty impressive. The other laptops in the series will probably feature all these and more.
Also, all NS series laptops will have the standard Bluetooth 3.0, and either 802.11b/g or 802.11b/g/n WiFi. Hard drive sizes will also be up to your choice. Right now, we don't have any info on the other models or pricing and release dates. Just keep your eyes peeled if you're interested.
