Falling Netbook Prices – 6/5/09
Posted by Tom Greer on June 5, 2009 in Acer Netbooks, Asus Netbooks, Falling Prices, MSI Netbooks
This morning, we have several netbooks where the lowest price has dropped by $5.00 or more.
The first one on our list is a great bargain. One of the Amazon.com merchants have cut their price on the Pearl White model of the Asus Eee PC 900 16G XP to $249.99.

If you would prefer a 10″ netbook, instead of the 9″ model above, then take a look at the Acer Aspire One D150 10″ 160GB 3-Cell XP. Mwave has just cut their price on the Ruby Red model to $279.99 with FREE shipping.

The final entry in today’s falling prices list is the MSI Wind U100 160G 3-Cell XP. Since MSI introduced the new U123, the prices on the older U100 models have been dropping.
A couple of the Amazon merchants are having a price war on the Black model. Yesterday, one of them cut their price to $299.99. Just before midnight, a different Amazon.com merchant responded by slashing their price to $295.99.

MSI Wind U123 With 9-Cell Battery

In our most recent poll, we asked you what netbook feature was most important to you. You overwhelmingly voted for “Battery Life”.
Well MSI must have been listening. They are releasing the new U123 version of the Wind Netbook with a 9-cell battery.
Amazon is now accepting pre-orders for the 9-cell model now. At this moment, only in blue.

For a long time, it seemed every new netbook looked the same as the last: 1.6 GHz Atom N270 processor, 10-inch screen, 160 GB hard drive, etc. But recently, there have been a whole wave of netbooks featuring bigger screens, faster processors and other features unique to netbooks.
Here are the ones that we like best:
- HP Pavilion dv2
- Asus N10J
- Dell Inspiron Mini 12
- MSI Meron VR220
