A new netbook from Samsung has been spotted featuring Intel’s latest netbook processor, the Atom N450.

The 10.1″ netbooks will feature a 1.66GHz Atom N450, Intel’s GMA 3150 graphics, 1GB DDR2 RAM and a 160GB HDD. The resolution will be 1024 x 600 and it comes pre-loaded with the rather limited Starter Edition of Windows 7. It will have an integrated webcam, 802.11b/g/n, 3 USB ports and a card reader.

The netbook will be able to manage up to 7 hours in battery life, no doubt in part due to the power efficient N450 that powers it. It weighs 2.73lbs and will be available, at least from Neobits, for $373.95, but there is no info on availability. Read more…
