Samsung enters the netbook market

There will be so many netbooks saturating the market before the end of the year, you won't even know which one to put under the tree. HP, ASUS, and Acer recently lowered the prices on their netbooks. Dell just launched its Inspiron Mini 9 and was even selling it for $99 with the purchase of a computer; and LG just announced the LG Netbook X110 due out sometime in October.

In Korea, Samsung has taken the wraps off its Atom-powered netbook Aving says will include a 10-inch screen, three USB ports, a webcam, VGA output, headphone jack, and WiBro technology (Mobile WiMAX). From the pictures on the site, it looks like it will likely have a decent keyboard as well, which has been the main complaint plaguing these little guys. The mini computer will launch globally at the end of October according to Aving, but we'll have to wait and see what other netbooks hit our shores before adding this one to our Christmas list. No word on pricing yet.
