Netbooks grow up: Advent 4213 has a 3G sim card slot
A few posts earlier on this blog – I was aching for an EEE with a 3G sim slot… It looked like they were going to add one – with the sim card solder-points on the new 901 model – but as far as I know – they haven’t got there yet.
But the good news is: PC World – AMAZINGLY – have managed to deliver the product that no-one else could… A mini notebook with a sim card slot!
.. with sim card slot!!!
Price is listed as £349.99 – specs are:
- Intel Atom N270 (Same as EEE 901 and MSI Wind/Advent 4211)
- 1GB RAM
- 160GB HD
- Windows XP
I think they’ve hit the nail on the head with this one – personally I’d prefer an SSD and Linux.. But an old-skool HD and XP is tried-and-trusted… Even for a techy – get one, shove VNC, Putty, Firefox, Thunderbird and Wireshark on there and you’re sorted!
I’ll report back here when I get more info!!
