Sorry for my poor knowlege on this, but there's a very nice HP netbook with a dual core atom and an ion chip that sounds perfect for you. Unfortunately I don't know the model number, but I'm sure another member will

Are you by any chance confusing that with the HP mini-Q which is a Nettop? I've tried searching but I haven't seen a dual-core HP Netbook, let alone one with NVIDIA ION in it

To the OP, that Acer Ferrari One will not disappoint, especially with a HD 3200 in it and a snappy 1.2GHz dual-core, do not just judge by its clock speed!

That's the one - looking at both the ferrari is slightly better, but if you want something a bit more understated then the HP is still a good buy imo.
I'm sure whatever you choose you'll like it, I really like my old eee pc 4g surf and it's not even near the specs of those netbooks.

Thanks for your contribution... anymore details??

According to http://experts.thelink.co.uk/2009/09...its-fast-lane/ there is a 3G Module, but I haven't found any other information, maybe you'll have more luck with that.

As for your 3G question, theoretically it should work from your SIM card.

The rest of the tech spec make this pretty much a netbook for the mainstream, with an 11.6-inch screen (1366 x 768 pixels), Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, optional 3G HSDPA module and Dolby surround sound. Apparently, it will also ship with an XPG port for connecting an external graphics device. |
I'm not sure where the dollar-to-pound conversion would get you, but I've recently decided on the Asus UL30Vt. It's small-ish, very thin, portable, and has excellent battery life. Price is $US800.
If you're looking for something a bit less expensive, then any of the EeePC line by Asus would work well. My wife has a 1001HA that she is very happy with, and we only paid about $US400 for it. They've since released the 1005 and 1008 series, and the 1005 is reported to have one of the best LCDs in the portable computer market.

You're probably thinking of the HP Mini 311, and if you are, it has the single-core Atom with the Ion chipset and graphics. There isn't a version of the HP with a dual core Atom and Ion that I am aware of.
If you like the Ion option, there is also the Lenovo S12 and the yet-to-be-released Asus EeePC 1201N to consider.
