what a difference from last year when Asus dominated the higher ranks of the whole notebook category with their NetBooks . now you see every-maker-out-there with 10″ LCD on Atom N270 CPU’s . the other myriad of 13″, 14″ and 15″ popularity centers on their price .
so now we have S101H accepting pre-orders for shipment starting February 23rd . for those ordering early will get a memory upgrade to 2GB . on-line discount price about W810,000 this hasn’t joined the ranks yet but I mention in respect to its struggle amid a snafu of all the makers now .
this is a minor upgrade to S101 released a month ago last December . most notable, or rather the only difference is the inclusion of a 18″ Hard Disk instead of SSD and chocolate-type keyboard like the MacBook – so far added to Korean models only .
