Without drawing much attention, Samsung slipped a couple of new netbook models into its enormous booth at CES this year. The company spent most of its time promoting eye-catching new computers like the Samsung Sliding Series computer and uber-thin and uber-expensive Samsung 9 Series laptop. But the folks at Notebook Italia also spotted a few new 10 inch netbooks including the Samsung NC110, Samsung NC210, and Samsung NS310.
As you might be able to guess, these are modest updates to the Samsung N110, N210, and N310 Go netbooks.
The NC110 has a new dual core Intel Atom N570 processor, while the NC210 has an Atom N550 dual core CPU. Both models support up to 2GB of DDR3 memory, a 250GB hard drive, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0 and have 3 USB ports, a VGA port, a flash card slot, and a 6 cell battery.
Both of these netbooks also feature a new case design that appears to dip down toward the back of the netbook, as well as matte displays.
The NS310 looks a lot like the pretty-much discontinued N310, but it has a metal chassis instead of the rubberized case found on the earlier model and it also has a backlit keyboard — something you don't often find on netbooks.
There's no word on when or where these models will be available. Samsung is an international company and has a habit of releasing some computers in certain parts of the globe without their ever finding their way to the US.
