Samsung will be launching a netbook that is based on NVIDIA’s Ion platform. Shown briefly during an NVIDIA presentation, the N510 is now known by insiders for Blogeee to use Ion to significantly improve 3D graphics and HD video decoding. It will also be Samsung’s largest netbook-class system with a 11.6-inch display, although a very narrow bezel should reduce the overall footprint of the computer.


Other than the advanced graphics, the N510 should have relatively standard netbook components with a 1.66GHz Atom processor, 1GB of memory and a 160GB hard drive. Samsung is bending Microsoft's rules for netbooks but still manages to use Windows XP instead of being pushed to use Vista. The new network should be available in October but would be priced at a premium 570 Euros ($799), or more than twice as much as most netbooks with Intel graphics and 10-inch displays.
