When I reviewed the Asus Eee PC 1005PE , I didn’t really think the display was any dimmer than other netbook screens I’ve tested. But then, I tend to keep display brightness near the middle setting most of the time. But if you’re looking for a brighter display, Asus has issued BIOS updates for the Eee PC 1005PE and 1001P which should make the screen brighter.The latest BIOS for each model is version 0804
February 28th, 2010 Trigem has released a handful of netbooks under the Averatec brand name over the past few years. But the Averatec N120 0 is prbably one of the best looking machines I’ve seen from this PC maker to date. The Averatec N1200 features a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, a 10 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, 1GB of RAM, and 160GB hard drive.
February 28th, 2010 Here’s my .02: Huh? From the site: Ass Blaster hot sauce in an outhouse is not for anyone with a weak stomach. It’s packaged in a wooden outhouse for a reason.
February 28th, 2010 I have no idea what this game is called since the page on Nintendo.co.jp is made up of images (hence Google translate is useless) but an upcoming Japanese DSiWare title features a clever system of motion-controlled 3D dioramas that allow you to change the view’s perspective by tilting the DSi. It’s actually kind of hard to explain, so I recommend watching the video above to really get the gist of the game’s mechanics. But here’s the really slick part.
February 28th, 2010 Verizon VZ are planning to launch the Google Nexus One phone on to their network on March 23. The information came from a worker over at Google GOOG who wishes to remain anonymous according to neowin . We already knew the phone was heading in the direction of Verizon, but until now we have only heard it will be launched Spring 2010
February 28th, 2010 Yesterday, Palm released webOS 1.4 for the Palm Pre and Palm Pixi which brings a number of bug fixes and enhancements to the devices. Now the update has been officially announced on the Sprint network (as reported yesterday) along with the O2 and Movistar networks.

February 28th, 2010 The Nexus One from Google GOOG will be arriving in the UK in April according to news from the Telegraph . An exact date in April is unknown at the moment and pricing is also unknown although it is expected that the phone will be priced similarly to the Apple iPhone in regards to tariffs.
February 28th, 2010 The Intel Atom N470 has been officially announced. The announcement appears to have come a little early as the document is dated the 1st March. On to the details… The Intel Atom N470 is a step up from the Intel Atom N450 CPU and runs at 1.83GHz along with housing 512Kb of L2 Cache.
February 27th, 2010 The HP Mini 311 comes with NVIDIA ION graphics and either an Atom N270 or N280 processor. That gives it more oomph in the graphics department than the vast majority of Atom-based netbooks and notebooks on the market. But as I pointed out in my review of the laptop , it generally feels a little sluggish when you’re performing tasks that don’t take advantage of the graphics processor, such as surfing the web.
February 27th, 2010 The Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3t is one of a handful of netbooks with a touchscreen display and swivel allowing you to fold the screen over the keyboard and hold the computer like a tablet. With a starting price of $549, it’s one of the cheapest convertible tablets around, and at least until the Asus Eee PC T101MT is released, it’s the only 10 inch tablet-style netbook I’m aware of with an Intel Atom N450 Pine Trail processor. The Wall Street Journal posted a brief review of the IdeaPad S10-3t
