HP rumored to have new Mini-notes on the way, father still unknown


by Darren Murph,
While the Viviene Tam Edition Mini 1000 sure was pretty, it's hardly what you'd call "new." According to undisclosed sources cited by the always questionable DigiTimes, Hewlett-Packard is toying with the idea of bringing three new infants to market in the Mini-note line. If all goes to plan, the 10.1-inch Mini-note 2140 will hit the scene in February at around $567, while a WWAN-enabled Mini-note 2150 (13.3-inch, presumably) will follow in early June. For what it's worth, a new 11.6-inch model is also mentioned, and as expected, the whole trio is apt to arrive with Intel Atom's within. Guess we'll just wait and see, folks.

Rumored Mac Mini refresh confirmed to be Ion-based

by Laura June,
People trading in salacious gossip have been counting on an update of the Mac mini for ages now, with most of the rumors centering on it making its appearance at Macworld. Well, the festivities came and went without a peep about the mini -- but that hasn't stopped the rumors from swirling. The latest we're hearing is that the refresh will be built upon NVIDIA's new Ion platform, which houses a 9400M GPU -- the same graphics processor as the new unibody Macbooks -- and could mean an even minier mini than the one we already know. Tom's Hardware, the source of this newest rumor, also speculates on a March release date, though they're not guessing on the price just yet.
