Viewsonic Rolls Out New VNB100 & VNB101 Netbooks

VNB100

Viewsonic is rolling out a new line of netbooks, and we're here with all the dirty details. The netbooks are known as the VNB100 and VNB101, and while they have little to speak of in terms of distinguishing characteristics, they could still be quite competitive.

The VNB100 packs an Intel Atom N270 and other standard-issue features like a 10-inch 1024 x 600 pixel display, 1 GB of RAM, and a 160 GB hard drive. It includes Wi-Fi as well as Windows XP. One bonus feature not often available in netbooks is ExpressCard 34.

The VBN101 is thinner and generally improved over the VBN100. It has the newer Intel Atom N280, a 5-hour lithium-polymer battery, and is only 25 mm thick.

Pricing for the upcoming Viewsonic netbooks is in the range of £299 ($615/€418) for VNB100 and the VNB101 for about £30 more. Check back soon for more details on availability.
