Samsung and Medion Prep Netbooks
With everyone from the new Commdore getting into the fray, It wouldn’t be a new day without new Netbook announcements or pictures. jkkmobile links to pictures from Aving of Samsung’s entry into the wackiest market since someone got the idea to great novelty USB keys. This looks like a 10 incher.
jkOnTheRun links to other news on Aving about Medion introducing new notebooks, including, yep, you guessed it, a 10 inch Netbook called the AKOYA Mini.
I expect Texas Instruments to announce a Netbook any day now.
UPDATE: jkkmobile has spotted specs and pricing on the Samsung Netbook.
