Limited-edition netbook is just like every other netbook except that there are only 30 of them
CrunchGear — ... Here’s a netbook. It’s called the Prime Note Cartina UM and only 30 of them will be available in all of Japan. What’s so special about this netbook? Well, it’s got some sort of Linux operating system, an 8.9-inch screen, an Intel Atom 270 chip, 120GB hard drive, 1GB of RAM, and it weighs 2.4 pounds. So basically, it’s the same as just about every other netbook ever released to date. Except there’s only 30 of them, which will presumably create a sky-high demand for the machine due to the limited supply, right? ...
