16 Nov 09 Samsung Go netbook hits AT&T with Windows 7 Starter in tow
In case you felt the need to purchase a netbook with built in AT&T 3G (aka willing to pay at least $35 a month for 200MB or $60 for 5GB) it was recently made known that the Samsung Go has hit the service.
The Samsung Go for AT&T will run you $199 after mail-in rebate and a 2 year contract as detailed above. Sure, you’ll get a 10-inch screen, Intel Atom processor, 160GB of HDD space, 1GB of RAM and a net book weighing under 3 pounds but the fact that it’s powered by Windows 7 Starter makes it less than enticing.
Then again, you can also opt for the Acer Aspire One with the same specs for the same price, also with Windows 7 Starter.

I thought netbooks have their own operating systems.
[...] Samsung Electronics is set to officially unveil another mobile phone soon after getting approval for its Samsung SCH-W799. The handset underwent rugged tests and satisfactorily met all conditions set by the FCC and now the only thing left is when it would officially hit the market. A lot of the tests done focused on the electromagnetic emissions of radio frequencies. The only thing clear about the Samsung SCH-W799 for now is that it comes with Bluetooth 2.0 with enhanced data rates and a permanently attached antenna with no provisions for an external one. But expect the official features to come out soon and it should not be surprising if it comes with the usual built-in camera, media players, GPS and other connectivity options as well. [...]
