HP Mini 210 Gets an Upgrade and 5 New Colors

The HP Mini 210 is a favorite when it comes to netbooks; and now it has a whole new look!

The HP Mini 210 is a favorite when it comes to netbooks; and now it has a whole new look! The brand-new Mini 210 offers a standard six-cell battery, providing nearly 11 hours of battery life. Additional features include a built-in webcam, microphone, and Dolby Advanced Audio system, a keyboard that is 93 percent the size of a regular keyboard, and five striking new colors: charcoal, crimson red (my fav!), lavender frost, luminous rose, and ocean drive.

Anthropologie Has Your HP Vivienne Tam Digital Clutch

Are you aching to get your hands on an HP Vivienne Tam Butterfly Lovers netbook?

Are you aching to get your hands on an HP Vivienne Tam Butterfly Lovers netbook? You aren't the only one! Although HP has quick links to third-party retailers that sell the designer digital clutch (Walmart, Amazon, and Buy.com) I stumbled upon the 2GB RAM/250GB hard drive version over at Anthropologie for $598.

Recently featured in Sex and the City 2, this compact computer is fun, fabulous, totally functional, and will probably fit in all those tiny tote bags you have shoved in your closet!

HP Mini 110, 210 Get Power and Color Update

If you're a pink person, you're going to really dig the latest news coming from HP.

If you're a pink person, you're going to really dig the latest news coming from HP. Announced today, HP will be wrapping its Mini 210 in a few new shades this Summer — Preppy Pink (which is using HP's 3D cover print technology to give the shell a 3D effect) and White Crystal. Coming stocked with all the tech specs of the previous 210 model, you can now choose to play up your girlie side with a bright pink hue (which is splashed on the keyboard as well) or dare to sport white all year round.

While the 210s get a boost in color, the entry-level HP Mini 110 is getting a bit of help in the power department with an upgrade from its previous three-cell battery to a six-cell, which should power you through eight hours of work and play. All Mini models will be hitting shelves June 15, with the Mini 210s priced at $354, while the powerlicious 110 will set you back $280. Being an HP Mini girl myself, I'm pretty excited about the battery upgrade, but I don't think these new cover colors can stack up to the designer Vivienne Tam edition, which has been on my wish list all year. Can't complain though — a girl can't have too many options.

To see more photos of the 210, just read on.

Skip the Chocolates, Get an HP Mini 210 For Your Valentine Instead

Let's face it: it's hard enough trying to stick to those resolutions without the threat of big heart-shaped boxes of chocolates throwing us off track in February.

Let's face it: it's hard enough trying to stick to those resolutions without the threat of big heart-shaped boxes of chocolates throwing us off track in February. Banish the cocoa this Valentine's Day and give your sweetheart a luscious red HP Mini 210 instead ($280).

Coming packed with Windows 7, 1GB of RAM, and up to 250GB hard drive, the netbook will allow your significant other to view tons of pictures, watch videos, and work on the go, all while enjoying the crisp 10.1 LED anti-glare widescreen display. There's even a webcam, so if you're far away from your loved one this Feb. 14, you can chat it up all night despite your distance. I've been a big fan of the HP Mini for a while (it even took home the award for your favorite netbook in 2009), and this love-tinted hue is just the icing on the cake.
