As mudanças mais notáveis no 2140 são a tela de 10,1 polegadas – com backlight de LED e proporção 16:9 (resoluções de 1.024 x 576 ou 1.366 x 768) – e o processador Intel Atom. Visualmente, ele parece idêntico ao 2133. Outra novidade é o Wi-Fi 802.11n. De resto, HD de 160 GB e até 2 GB de RAM. Deve sair ainda neste mês, com preços a partir de US$ 500.

[EK: Adrian Covert diz que os sistemas operacionais disponíveis são Windows Vista, FreeDOS ou SuSE Linux – as mesmas opções do 2133 Mini-Note. A “Laptop”, porém, já publicou um review de uma unidade que tinha o Windows XP Home. A princípio, parece tudo muito bom. Dos netbooks que já passaram pelas minhas mãos, o 2133 foi um dos que mais me agradou, junto com o MSI Wind. Seus dois maiores problemas – o processador VIA C7-M e o Windows Vista – parecem sanados no 2140.]


    LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2009 – Building on its award-winning portfolio of Mini products, HP today unveiled a new HP Mini designed for mobile professionals that require a rich computing experience in a small, portable package.
