All The Latest Cell Phone, Gadget and Tech News

Don’t get all too excited since this isn’t official news. You can get mildly excited though since we expect HP to launch new netbooks in the near future. So why wouldn’t this new netbooks be 10.1- and 11.6-inch ultra-slim machines?

The word on the street is that HP has hired Quanta to make the 11.6-inch netbook this August while the 10.1-inch netbook is due before the end of the year. Inventec is also going to make netbooks for HP but these are revisions of HP’s 10.1-inch netbook. No details have been leaked so far about any of these new HP netbooks, but we’re counting on HP to bring something new to the table. Can we expect Windows 7 HP netbooks soon?

Quanta Computer will also make new 15.6- and 17.3-inch notebooks and shipments will start in August while Compal Electronics will work on 13.3- and 14-inch versions.

We can honestly say that we knew this was bound to happen. The minute Intel and Nokia shook hands thinking at the future of mobile devices, people must have started wandering when the first Nokia laptop should arrive. And Nokia is on track with its laptop plans for this year. Together with Intel it will launch an Atom-based netbook sometime in the third quarter of the year, according to the Commercial Times.

The Nokiabook will probably be made by Compal and Quanta, two companies well versed in the netbook-making business. Compal will go even further and create a Qualcomm Snapdragon Nokia smartbook but we don’t have any specific details for any of those future Nokia devices just yet.

Despite having a great financial quarter and despite answering to Microsoft commercial campaign which shows everyone how a regular PC is just as good and way cheaper than a MacBook, Apple seems ready to do all that’s necessary in order to keep the customers interested in Apple laptops and desktops. Therefore the Cupertino-based company is willing to offer cheaper MacBooks and iMac lines in the near future while in the shadows the company will be working on a new tablet line meant to compete against those netbooks out there.

Apple still says no to an Apple netbook but all the signs point to a different directions. Rumors say that Apple and Verizon will be releasing an iPad this year while Quanta is delivering 10-inch displays to Apple. If it’s not an Apple netbook, what else could it be?

So we’ve seen the Adamo from Dell. We didn’t have time to start dreaming about it as we had to check out Quanta which is said to have an ultra-thin notebook in the works. Great! We’ll be able to choose one from these two. Is anyone else designing an ultra-thin laptop? We’re all going to replace the Air which we’d love to buy with an Adamo or Quanta laptop, aren’t we? It looks like Quanta’s notebook will have a thickness of only 1 to 2 cm and it will come with an entry-level price. No pictures for now, but we expect them to arrive soon. It was time for Quanta to start making its own computers and it’s a great idea to start with an extra-slim laptop.

So should we expect the Air to become more customer-with-a-budget-friendly?
