Epson Endeavor Netbook Gets Even Blander

Epson of Japan is delivering a white version of its previous netbook, the Na01 Endeavor.

The new Na01 Endeavor Mini White is exactly the same in terms of specs – it offers an “Atom N270  processor (1.6Ghz), 1GB RAM, a 160GB HDD, Ethernet, Wifi, Bluetooth, three USB ports, a multicard reader, a One-Seg digital TV tuner, Windows XP and a 10.2-inch LCD screen with 1,024×600 resolution.” From a purely design standpoint, the new white version resembles a clunkier MSI Wind U100H or less-classy Samsung NC10.

We don’t know if the Epson netbook will ever see US shores, but frankly I don’t think anyone’s holding his breath. The Na01 Endeavor may be the blandest, most excruciatingly base netbook ever, even if it does its job well. If computers had feelings, I’d kinda feel bad for the little guy!

The white Na01 has also gotten a slim price cut, dropping it 6.4% for a mildly cheaper $480.

Netbook Deals For Black Friday: Get Pumped

Thanksgiving is here, though given the amount of crazy deals to be offered tomorrow, it might more properly be named ‘Black Friday’s Eve.’

Netbooks are going to be flying off the shelves this year, with some amazingly cheap offers on classic netbooks, as well as some new ones. With the slew of recent new netbook releases on everyone’s mind, tonight and tomorrow will be big for the industry. With no further ado, check out these amazing Black Friday netbook deals, coming to a retailer near you.

The Asus Eee PC 900a will be offered at Best Buy for $299, the cheapest it’s been since its original release. In case you’ve forgotten, the 8.9″ XP-running netbook hit stores at $550 back in the day. Though unconfirmed, some analysts (such as one on ComputerWorld Blogs) suspect the Asus Eee PC 1000 may also be going for about $399.

The Dell Inspiron Mini 9 will also be offered for a fantastically cheap $299, to feature 512 MB of RAM, an Ubuntu 8.04 memory card, and 4 GB SSD.

The classic Acer Aspire One will also be offered for dirt cheap, with the XP Home version going as low as $349 and the Linpus Linux one for $300. It has an 8.9″ display and is known for its excellent keyboard. Expect a comparable 512 MB RAM but a massive 8 GB SSD.

Finally, the MSI Wind 100 – with 10″, 1 GB RAM, 120 GB HDD – will be measuring in at an easy $299. This netbook runs a SLED, or SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop.

These deals are so good that we can definitely expect netbooks to be, as of tomorrow, creeping into the homes of consumers. We’ll be all over those developments as they come. For now, happy Thanksgiving and get up early because tomorrow is a big day. If there is a better day to get yourself a new netbook, we don’t know of it. Good luck!
