Amazon Selling Discounted Mobile Broadband Netbooks

I’ve just noticed (though this certainly could have been the case for some time) that Amazon is offering three models of discounted Netbooks with embedded 3G mobile broadband connectivity. The discounts on the models are at least $300 provided that you also subscribed to the pricey (typically $60+/mo) wireless broadband service of either AT&T or Verizon.

Lenovo S10-2 Netbook - $359

As a recent Netbook purchaser I can tell you that Netbook computers are great for anyone who primarily works via the web. The last few days I’ve connected via Windows Remote Desktop Connection to two of my clients to work on their computers, streamed Slacker Radio in the morning, watched movies, browsed the Internet from bed and let my kids play Club Penguin until their fingertips bleed. All of this from a Wi-Fi connected Netbook that cost barely over $300 and is ultra light to carry.

These tiny (10? screen) and cheap Wi-Fi equipped machines are great for taking anyplace you may not want to venture with a bigger, heavier and more expensive full laptop

Palm Pre already torn to shreds, estimated to cost $170

Zero-day teardowns are now a staple of major new product launches, and Rapid Repair is eager to do the deed on the Pre just a few hours after going on sale. Word like "pry," "razor," "spudge," and "difficult" all make appearances in this one, so the long and the short of it is that you don't want to try doing this yourself unless you're a microsurgeon, an electrical engineer, or you have a total commitment and willingness to destroy your brand new Pre in the name of science. Overall, Rapid Repair estimates $170.02 in components -- but as always, this figure doesn't mean a lot since you can't quantify the blood, sweat, tears, and poached engineers from competitors that went into this product over the last several years.

RIM Buys Dash

RIM has acquired Dash Navagation for an undisclosed amount of money/stock. This is thanks to Boy Genius Report, PhoneScoop and Engadget.

To refresh everyone’s memory, Dash is the company who makes the cellular connected GPS that Wayne loved to hate and that I kind of liked. Hopefully some of the software that they used will make it into the Blackberry.

Palm Pre goes on sale nationwide, line forms on the right

Oh, hey, look at that: you can buy a Pre now! As of 8:00AM on the East Coast, the phone went on sale at Sprint stores, with Best Buy, Radio Shack and Wal-Mart also retailing the phone today as Saturday dawns across the country. After Sprint's invite only pre-Pre launch event last night, we still saw plenty of folks lined up outside Sprint's "flagship" New York store in the Flatiron Building before the doors opened. Apparently people started queuing around 5:00AM, with Chris Lee and Randy Williams the first through the door -- replacing a Treo Pro and a HTC Mogul, respectively. Like last night, the process took about 40 minutes, but a lot of that is spent waiting for a small pit crew of Sprint employees to swap over your address book, so if you forgo that we'd say you can be in and out in 30, which should still be plenty of time to savor the moment.

Belkin’s GPS FM Transmitter Knows Where You Are

Belkin has announced a pretty awesome sounding product coming this fall. The TuneCast Auto Live FM transmitter for iPhone is a GPS-enabled FM transmitter that automatically finds the best FM station based on where you are. It uses the GPS to determine your location and then, using the ClearScan Live iPhone application, tunes to the right frequency for the clearest FM transmission.

My main gripe with FM transmitters is that they don’t usually go high or low enough to get a good signal in Dallas Fort Worth, which apparently has a pretty packed FM lineup. I also hated that I had to change the station frequently.
