ASUS released another Eee PC I wrote about back in October, the 4G Surf, which is available now in the US at a price of just $350, through NewEgg.
With a display resolution of 800x480 pixels, the 7-inch 4G Surf runs on a medium processor, Intel Celeron M at 900MHz, and has the Intel 910GML chipset with the GMA 900 integrated graphics.
Its design is remarkable, 4G Surf being conceived to resist at shocks, built with a durable housing material.
It is a mini notebook weighting just 0.92kg that has 512MB of RAM, 4GB Solid State Disk, Ethernet LAN connection, 3 USB ports, VGA out, 802.11b/g wireless support and a media card reader.
The less good part, to say so, is that the 4G Surf has no webcam, and its 4 cell 4400mAh battery consumes in approximately 2.8 hours.
This small black notebook runs a Linux-based user interface and comes with a lot of free software.

In December, Dell planned to release two new Inspiron notebook models, 1525 and 1526, destined for small businesses.
The low-cost notebooks have a 15-inch display and will replace the existing Inspiron 1520 and 1521 models.
The Santa Rosa-based Inspiron 1525 will come equipped with 4GB of RAM memory, WXGA/WXGA+/WSXGA+ panel options, S-ATA HDDs, the Blu-Ray reader option, Wi-Fi, WWAN and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR.

For connectivity it will have 4 USB ports, a 4-pin FireWire connector, Ethernet and modem support, VGA out, an optional HDMI, an 8-in-1 multi-card reader, an ExpressCard slot, and it will let you choose between Windows Vista and Ubuntu operating systems.
On the other hand, the Inspiron 1526 will be powered by an AMD processor and will have an ATI Radeon X1270 graphics card.

This model will not feature the Blu-Ray reader, while the rest of the specs are the same.

The company did not make public the price yet but we can’t expect at something high.
Both 6.6-pound models keep the design line of the Inspiron series.
