Many industry observers are scoffing at netbooks because of tablets and now ultrabooks. Now Intel starts shipping Cedar Trail chips and this could give the form factor a sort of revival. Lenovo calls the IdeaPad S110 as a "mini notebook" to distance itself from apparently a PR nightmare category: netbook. The N2600 Cedar Trail chip comes courtesy of two online retailers with specs that include a gig of RAM and an HD of 320GB. The machine is about 16mm thick, weighing at 1.15kg, USB 3.0, 10.1-inch HD screen and an optional 720p webcam as well as 3G connectivity. The S110 joins the Asus Eee PC 1025 and two upcoming Samsung netbooks on the Cedar Trail-tooting devices.
The new chipset and its graphical improvements will be a big leap from its previous generation. Pricing of this netbook is at $330 but Lenovo intends to sell this model at $299.
