Verizon Wireless has quietly added another netbook into their current lineup. The new model is the HP Mini 210-1076NR and it’s priced at $149.99 on a two year agreement.It features the 10.1 inch LED display with a 1024 x 600 resolution, 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive, 6 cell battery, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth and Windows 7 Starter edition.
Additionally, you will also find a 93% full sized keyboard, HP Clickpad with on/off button, stereo speakers, three USB 2.0 ports, 0.3 megapixel webcam with integrated microphone, 5-in-1 memory card reader, VGA out, Ethernet and headphone/microphone combo.
The reason behind the HP Mini 210 netbook being offered by Verizon comes due to the built in 3G support. But that also means an extra monthly cost in terms of the 3G access. In this case, interested customers can opt to choose from either the 250MB per month option for $39.99 or the 5GB per month option for $59.99.
Most important is $149.99 price tag means a two year agreement and in the case of a netbook you are purchasing what Verizon considers an “advanced device.” In short, that means should you decide to cancel before your two years are up, you will have to pay a $350 early termination fee.
Verizon is also offering a few other netbooks including the Gateway LT2016u with 10.1 inch display for $49.99 and the HP Mini 311 with 11.6 inch display for $199.99. Still, there is always the option to purchase a netbook or notebook elsewhere and just get a MiFi from Verizon, which will be the same as far as monthly cost and allow you to connect up to five Wi-Fi capable devices at any time.
