More Atom N280-based Netbooks Coming Our Way
Posted on Jan 14, 09 08:43 AM PDT
Having mentioned that the Atom N280 processor has mushroomed at CES, it is interesting to note that Acer, Gigabyte Technology and Asus will be rolling out a fair number of 10" netbooks sometime between the second and third quarter of the year. These CPUs will be bundled with Intel's GN40 chipset and is nearly 50% more expensive compared to its predecessor, as the Atom N280 is priced at $60-65 in thousand-unit tray quantities, while the Atom N270 is much more affordable at $46 for a similar amount. Do you think the introduction of a beefier processor will help in terms of netbook sales, or does it really matter?
