When Asus first introduced the Asus Eee Pc 701 to the world at Computex Taipei 2007, we view that the next computing craze would be small, cheap and light mini laptops. Fellow Tawaiianese competitor Acer stepped in with it's Acer Aspire One, Msi brought out the Wind, but no big brands yet stepped in. By the end of 2008, the Hp 2133 mini-note and Dell Inspiron Mini 9 were on the scene. Gradually the bigger fellowships have all stepped in, although still overshadowed by the Linux dominated Asus/Acer duopoly.
However, Samsung and Hp both brought out great new 10 inch models putting the Tawaiianese to shame - the Samsung Nc10 and Hp Compaq mini 700. Toshiba arrive on the scene with its Nb100 mini laptop - even Sony turned up with it's quintessential Vaio P Series 'Lifestyle Pc'. They seem to differentiate themselves from the earlier models. The specs are better, Windows Xp is more leading (the Samsung Nc10 came out with just Windows Xp, and it was a bestseller) but the size and price has crept upwards.

Now, as even newer models are hitting the shelves such as the Samsung Nc120, Acer Aspire One 751 and Toshiba Nb200 with even higher specs together with integrated 3G enabling internet entrance wherever you can get mobile phone signal - in case,granted you have a sim card. Incidentally, a stronger partnership of 3G mobile broadband and mini laptops could show a wholly new direction within the computing industry. Network providers go hand in hand with the mobile phone commerce and like to contribute phones for "free" on lucrative contracts. But so far the efforts to put laptops and netbooks on compact have been dinky at most - yes, there are some contracts ready for around £20-30 per month together with a free laptop. The range is limited, and more often than not the laptops don't have embedded sim cards, so you're stuck with a clumsy Usb dongle - good for sharing but not much else.
But this looks all about to change as new mini laptops in the pipeline are arrival with 3G sim embedded capabilities. That means you can plainly enter a sim and surf, which could mean that the laptop compact shop will become suddenly a whole lot more consumer friendly. What we like to call '3G mini laptops' - the third generation - could be ready to accept any sim card, possibly changing the face of network providers shops forever, filling out the wall space beside the customary mobile phones and BlackBerry's.
But what else can a new mini laptops provide? New models such as the Samsung Nc310, Acer Aspire One 751 and Sony Vaio P Series have sorted out some of the fundamental flaws of the earlier models - the small "cramped" keyboards and interface, reliability, battery life, operating systems and more. arrival in 2010 is the new Windows 7 operating law which will adorn later models.
So have mini laptops reached their full potential? Possibly, but there's one iconic player in the computer shop that has left the world of smaller, economy consumer laptops claiming that they "Don't know how to make a 0 laptop that isn't a piece of junk". These are the words of Steve Jobs, Ceo of Apple. Apples typically take an existing product and giving it its touch of innovation. The iPod is now shop leader in the music player industry, the iPhone has revolutionised the world of mobile phones, the Mac to a smaller extent has impacted the computer market, particularly amongst illustrated arduous applications. Could Apple contribute the same stop to a mini MacBook?
There have been numerous rumours about an Apple netbook, but some more mammoth evidence of a touchscreen type device combining a larger iPhone type console with the Mac operating system. Maybe Apple's entry into the shop could turn the netbook shop on its head.
