HP dx, HDX laptops
Expanding beyond new entries in its dv and tx laptops, specifications have come out on two more HP systems. The HDX9100 is a successor to the current HDX9000; although it should be a desktop replacement unit, little is known other than it will likely retain the 9000's 20.1-inch size. More remarkable may be the dx6600, important for being the first in a new dx series. Limited to integrated graphics on a 15.4-inch display, its main features will come in the form of hardware abilities, such as dual-layer DVD burning with LightScribe labelling.
The 6600 will also have HDMI output, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, and a 1.3-megapixel webcam. A five-in-one memory card reader should come standard, as should an ExpressCard/34 slot, something that has typically been reserved for more expensive laptops. In terms of processors shoppers should be able to pick from a variety of AMD chips, such as a Turion64 X2 TL-58 on the 6650us variant. No prices or release dates have been mentioned.
