It’s slim, sleek and has built-in 3G (the booklet not the girl.)

Fujitsu Hong Kong releases an eye-catching sleek little netbook.
Fujitsu Hong Kong recently released a new netbook which is not only compact, but incredibly stylish and will be this season’s must-have tech accessory for the urban fashionista.
The ultra lightweight and über-sleek LifeBook UH900 features a 62GB solid-state drive (SSD), IntelAtom Z530 processor and weighs less than 500g. Fujitsu’s new netbook also boasts full Windows 7 compatibility including multi-touch support.

OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode in easier terms it means “Super skinny video screens that can basically wrap around your wrist.” So you can imagine how totally cool, and how totally useless your current netbook will be, when it starts to come out at a consumer level later in 2010:
Samsung says it aims to roll out this beauty with a 12.1-inch, 1280×768 AMOLED screen by the end of next year, and it might even be available as early as the third quarter.
Samsung SDI is the world’s largest OLED screen manufacturer, so it would be only natural for it to be first up with an OLED notebook. This will certainly be a premium item — nobody’s talking price, but we’re guessing this sexy lappie will probably cost at least US$5000. Fast forward five years, and OLED laptops will be commonplace … and cheap.
It seems new tech always costs alot when it comes out but within 24 months its dirt cheap. But keep your eyes open for more OLED devices coming out from Samsung before this one does.
Here’s a 4-minute video from CES 2009 that will open your mind to the possibilities that OLED will be bringing to our gadgets:
Got a netbook? But wondering if you could just add a little bit more monitor space for your Twitter client or Intsant Messenger without taking up too much room? Well it looks like the Mimo Mini USB Monitor is the answer to this burning question.

Asus’s latest netbook sure catches the “apple” of your eye.
What does this remind you of? To us, it sure looks like Apple’s Macbook Air. However, Asus’s new netbook, the Eee PC 1080HA sure packs some great performance along with its sleek looks.
At only 1″ thin and weighs only 1.1kg, the Asus Seashell is definitely quite portable as well as attractive. Its shiny outside is also matched with its 10.1″ LED Backlight 1024×600 glossy LCD display with a built-in 1.3 mega-pixel webcam.
Inside, it packs an Intel Atom N280 processor, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, and 160GB of hard disk drive storage. On top of that, Asus also offers a complimentary 10GB of free online Eee storage. The netbook comes with the new Asus Super Hybrid Engine to offer the maximum power efficiency, offering an impressive battery life of 6 hours.
Netbooks are really becoming popular these days. They offer excellent portability, yet offer a lot more power than your smartphones at a similar price. If you were planning to get your hands on one of these, take a look at our recommended netbooks.
5. Asus Eee PC 1000HE
