10-inch Acer Aspire One Officially Launched

Acer has recently released the 10-inch version of Aspire One netbook, AOD150, in the U.S.

Acer provide a few color options for their new 10-inch Aspire One, but unfortunately pink is not one of them (there's a ruby red version though which might be of interest for pink laptop lovers).


The specs for the Aspire One AOD150 are as follows:
10.1-inch 1024×600 Acer CrystalBrite TFT LCD display
Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz processor
1GB RAM
160GB/5,400 rpm HDD
945GSE Express Chipset
Integrated Intel GMA950 graphics
WiFi 802.11b/g
Acer Crystal Eye webcam
A multi-in-1 card reader
6-cell battery
Available colors: seashell white, sapphire blue, ruby red and diamond black
And as usual, Laptop Magazine has got an early review on the new 10-inch machine from Acer. According to them, the Aspire One AOD150 is slim, stylish, and comes with great performance and battery life. If not because of the keyboard and touchpad layout, it's almost comparable to the Samsung NC10 and the new Asus Eee PC 1000HE... and it beats the other two in terms of price ($349.99). Overall, Laptop Magazine gave it a rating of 4 out of 5.

The Acer Aspire One AOD150 appears to be another great netbook that can be listed in our best netbook list. It's unfortunate that it's currently not available in pink, but we believe sooner or later, Acer will release a pink version, just its 8.9-inch predecessor.
