I love my 15 inch Macbook Pro when I use it at home on the couch, but my affection wears thin when I travel with it. Carrying it a gear bag slung over my shoulder and having to pull it out at various airport security checks, does get old. Thats why a...
Abstract: Small. Sleek. Pricey - Or is it? Thats generally the case for small notebooks -- high on portability, but priced at a premium. HP blasts that assumption by introducing the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC, a notebook that is both portable and affordable. While de...

Weak performance; unimpressive battery life; tiny touch pad; misses out on new Intel Atom CPUs.
Despite an underpowered CPU, the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC offers the best balance of small size, comfort, and functionality weve seen in a mininotebook, making it fast a favorite for on-the-go use.
The most attractive 8.9inch notebook weve ever seen, Excellent build quality, Great keyboard, ExpressCard slot offers fantastic expansion possibilities, Multiple configuration options

The HP 2133 Mini-Note is one of the most impressive subnotebooks weve ever seen. Unfortunately, the amazing design and solid range of features are diminished by a sub-par processor and a price tag that places this notebook dangerously close to far sup...
Apple-like design. Comfortable keyboard. Spacious and sexy screen design. ExpressCard slot for 3G. SD slot. More than one USB port. Wide selection of operating systems. 2GB RAM. Wide choice of mass-storage options. Extended batteries available. Very trave...
Runs uncomfortably warm with the 7,200-rpm hard drive. Mouse buttons are awkwardly positioned.
The HP Mini-Note is not quite an Eee PC killer, but its a super-sleek ultra-mobile PC that will sell out as quickly as the Eee PC did....
