UK Netbook Review

Onkyo has launched a new 10 inch netbooks in Japan – the Onkyo C411 and C413. We actually saw the Onkyo C411 earlier this year, and noted that it had some interesting non-standard netbook features like the AM/FM radio and digital TV tuner. Sadly, the Onkyo C413 doesn’t doesn’t have either of those features and not much of anything to compensate. It’s a standard netbook with a 10.1 inch display and an Intel Atom N450 processor.

The first impression of this netbook, is that it’s light and thin – seems to be a trend these days following after the Asus Seashell theories, and we certainly don’t mind. This Onkyo netbook weighs in at just 933 grams and is less than an inch thick at .9 inches. According to Portable Monkey, it feels even lighter and slimmer than the ASUS Eee PC S101 I previously owned until last month. The one downside is that there is no actual VGA out port. Instead, you have to make do with a big adaptor that attaches via mini USB.
