Asus has come up with the new Eee PC 1018 that is a dream come true for all netbook enthusiasts. It is a sleek and elegantly designed thin netbook which has a completely flat lid. Asus has luckily kept their standard Eee PC keyboard which makes typing much easier. However, the smaller right-side Shift key is difficult to use if you’re used to a larger Shift key.

The touch pad offered in the Eee PC 1018 has improved greatly as compared to the previous versions of Eee PC touch pads. Not only is it bigger, but it has a specific scroll zone along the right corner. The 10.1 inch display has a 1,024×600-pixel native resolution which is the same as previous versions of Eee PCs, so no new developments in that area.

Overall, the new Eee PC is a great buy for anyone who wants to upgrade from their old netbook.

Forget about bulky laptops and smaller netbooks, because the latest trend these days is the Mini! Dell has finally unveiled its newest creation: the Mini 1018. This new version deals with some of the design and specification problems that Dell’s previous mini netbook (Mini 1012) had.

One thing’s for sure: don’t allow the small size of this machine to trick you. The new Mini 1018 comes with the DDR3 compatible N455, a 802.11n wireless capability and a touch pad with prominent buttons and one-touch functionality. Unfortunately, this new netbook comes in only one color – glossy Obsidian Black. However, the slick exterior and the number of functions the Mini 1018 has to offer are more than enough to make you the object of everyone’s envy.

According to the rumors that appear in different online-communities of IT experts, Google plans to put its netbook on the market at the end of 2010. As expected, it will have embedded modules for broadband Internet connection (WWAN), 3G and 4G modems and flash memory instead of hard drive.
