HP is the first manufacturer to launch an AMD Neo based machine, the sleek 12-inch Pavillion dv2.
The dv2 is powered by an Athlon Neo at 1.6GHz, uses Radeon HD3410 graphics and offers up to 500GB of storage. It weighs 1.7kg and it's 2.3cm thick, a bit more than the MacBook Air or Lenovo X301, which are both 13.3-inch units. Nothing spectacular, but not bad either. You could say it's half way between a netbook and an ultraportable (And a regular 12.1-inch notebook. sub.ed).
Anyway, here's the good part - the entry level SKU will retail at $699 (€520/£475) ex VAT, while better spec'd iterations will sell for $899 (€669/£610), and it looks nice too. The only downside is that the 12.1-inch LED backlit screen has a native resolution of 1,280x800 pixels which isn't exactly full HD resolution for those that want to watch Blu-ray movies on it via the optional external Blu-ray drive.
Availability is expected in Q2.
