Digital Home Thoughts: HP Mini 1000

"If our overly fannish announcement post didn't give it away, we're pretty excited about the HP Mini 1000. It has little to do with the specs -- the drop in screen resolution from the 2133 is a little disappointing, plus we would've liked to at least see what one of these netbooks could do with a VIA Nano under the hood -- and everything to do with the fit and finish HP is bringing to this pricepoint ($399), in both hardware and software."

Looks like HP found the right balance of features to still make an very nice netbook for a lot less than the very well received 2133. The keyboard looks especially nice even thought they used the same odd touch-pad button placement as on the Acer Aspire One.
