HP Keeps the Netbook Train Moving With Two New Minis
Computers are totally fashionable, folks. Vivienne Tam impressed us all with her chic new HP digital clutch design at this year's Fashion Week, but HP couldn't get enough and debuted two more sleek and stylish Minis this week for you to drool over.

Vivienne Tam and HP Collaborate on a Netbook Once Again
Vivienne Tam is starting a trend, and it goes beyond her amazing fashion designs. At last year's Fashion Week, Vivienne Tam unveiled a designer HP Mini 1000 that I instantly fell in love with, and at this weekend's Spring 2010 show, she did it again.
The newest designer netbook clutch comes in a feminine gold and butterfly finish, inspired by the Chinese story of the "Butterfly Lovers", which is a beautiful tale of freedom, romance and inspiration.
Nokia Introduces Its Own Netbook, the Booklet 3G
Welcome the latest netbook to the fold: the Nokia Booklet 3G.
The cell phone maker is dropping its offering to the market with the Booklet, (which they're calling a mini laptop), which has a 10.1-inch display, 2.7 lb aluminum body, integrated 3G wireless, 12-hour battery life, Bluetooth/WiFi connectivity, and Windows 7.
This is a strong addition to the netbook game — and it doesn't look too shabby either, with its option of black, blue, or silver exterior.
Hannspree Debuts the HannsNote Netbook
You know Hannspree, the maker of those adorable TVs for kids? Well the company has decided to dip into the Netbook market with the launch of the 10-inch LED-backlit LCD HannsNote. Said to be priced at $379, this little book will come in black-or-white and feature a 1.3-megapixel webcam, 1GB of RAM and Windows XP.

A Yummy Leather Bag to Hold All Your Little Laptops
I have sung the praises of the HP Mini on a few occasions, and can't get enough of the netbook craze altogether. And although I love the mighty little machine, it does come with a certain disadvantage: it's so small you might lose it to the depths of your full-sized laptop bag. I know, I know, I shouldn't complain — the lighter the laptop means less shoulder strain for me.
AT&T to Sell $200 Netbooks Online and in Stores
AT&T has just announced that they will be expanding its line of broadband-enabled netbooks by bringing the slim Acer Aspire One, Dell Mini 10, and Lenovo S10 to stores nationwide. Best of all, they will only cost $199.99 after a mail-in rebate, but you must sign up for a two-year service contract.
The big thumbs down on this deal is the fact that contracts are priced at $40 a month for a 200MB plan or $60 for a 5GB plan.
The Toshiba NB205 Mini Laptop Is Coming to America
Later this month, Toshiba will be bringing its teeny and chic 10.1-inch NB205 netbook to the States, and it is expected to cost only between $350 to $400. With its nine-hour battery life, durability, Bluetooth functionality, and cool colors like brown, white, pink, or blue, it's definitely a winner in my book. This laptop is extremely portable and perfect for anyone who wants to stay connected on the go — and you don't get stuck paying the hefty price of other netbooks on the market.
