The netbooks weigh about 2.33 pounds and are powered by Intel's Atom N270 or N280 processors, which run at 1.6GHz and 1.66GHz, respectively.

Fujitsu this week launched the M2010 Mini-Note, which has a 10.1-inch screen and comes with the standard components you would find in netbooks, such as integrated webcams. The system can have as much as 1GB of DDR2 memory and 160GB of hard drive storage. The base netbook comes with a three-cell battery that provides as much as two-and-a-half hours of computing, but that can be doubled with an optional six-cell battery, according to the company. It is powered by an Atom N270 processor running at 1.6GHz.

The netbook's price tag of $449 is high, but the company has built-in Bluetooth capabilities and three USB ports, which is unusual for a netbook. However, vendors such as Dell, Asus and Acer offer cheaper netbooks with integrated features such as webcams, which could be a better option for those who don't need Bluetooth or extra USB ports.
