Samsung Go netbook gets Pine Trail Atom CPU
Samsung has quietly upgraded its Go range of netbooks, the N315. Most significantly, it has the newer 1.66GHz Atom CPU from Intel's newer Pine Trail platform versus the older 1.6GHz version, along with a matte screen. The chassis and keyboard are carried over, and a Wi-Fi radio is integrated as well. The New York Times' Reader software is preloaded onto the larger 250GB hard drive, along with Windows 7 Starter.
The 10.1-inch screen has 1024x600 resolution, and there is 1GB of RAM, Intel's GMA3150 graphics chipset, a 1.3-megapixel camera and a 4-cell battery that's said to last as long as 4.5 hours. The new Go weighs just over 2.7lbs.
The Go N315 can now be pre-ordered at Amazon for $426. [via Netbooked]
