One of the key components of a netbook is the hard drive. While typically today, this is a mechanical device, often 160 or 250 GB, this was not always the case. Early netbooks, in order to keep the weight down, and maximize the battery life, used flash cards as the main system memory. However, in [...]

28. July 2010 | by Jonas
I think we all can agree that a USB flash drive is an essential accessory for just about every computer user. However, they are limited in capacity, and most of us have one that is 1 to 4 gigs on our keychain, so only the essential info will be moving around with us. However, there [...]

12. June 2010 | by Jonas
While I don’t generally get too excited about netbook accessories, or docking stations, the Aegis Netbook Docking Station was a different enough product, that it warranted a closer look. The folks at Apricorn were kind enough to provide us with a review sample, so special thanks to them. The selling feature of this device is [...]

9. June 2010 | by Jonas
The Aegis Netdock is a new accessory that deals with some of the shortcomings of the netbook platform. After all, most netbooks have either 2 or 3 USB ports, and therefore become limited in what can become connected to them. On top of that, netbooks do not have a DVD drive, and a small hard [...]

5. October 2009 | by Robert Nelson
I guess part of the netbook market has long been accessories, personally I have an external DVD drive from Asus, but honestly never put much thought into what else was available. My main accessory, if you can call it that, is a large SD card that will allow me to store and easily share files [...]

5. October 2009 | by Jonas
I rarely see an accessory worth talking about, but this one stood out. While notebooks have grown smaller into netbooks, printers have not exactly kept pace. The Print Stick portable printer could be the device that finally makes it into our netbook bags. It weighs in at 1.5 pounds, and is quite [...]

Active Media have recently introduced a faster line of SSD drives intended for Asus netbooks. The lineup is called the SaberTooth S3, and aside from a cool sounding name they are pretty nicely spec’d and pretty nicely priced. To begin with, the SaberTooth S3 line is based on the “latest SMI SATA-NAND controller” and are promised [...]

21. September 2009 | by Robert Nelson
When it comes to netbooks there are few accessories that I feel the need to purchase. That said, a TV tuner is one of the few that can be a perk, of course, anyone who likes netbooks will also most likely understand that size is an issue and smaller sometimes is better. Given that, if you [...]

3. July 2009 | by Robert Nelson
Just about a week ago we began seeing complaints coming from angry Dell customers who ordered the Mini 10 netbook with the optional internal TV tuner. If you remember back, those customers were not being shipped the external antenna, which essentially made the internal TV tuner useless. Anyway, good news here is that Dell is preparing [...]
