Ready for the smartbook revolution? Too late, cause here they come — and the first officially-announced product we’ve got is the Mobinnova élan netbook, a NVIDIA Tegra-powered machine that weighs in at just two pounds but can pump out 720p video on its 8.9-inch screen. It’s not at all clear what OS this guy’s running, but we’re told that it has an “innovative 3D graphical user interface,” supports hardware-accelerated Flash video — which is huge freaking deal, if you ask us — has WiFi and 3G, and can play video for five to ten hours on a single charge. That’s pretty impressive, but we’ll wait to see what pricing looks like — if it’s cheaper than the sub-$300 10-inch netbooks that are starting to arrive we’d say it could be a huge winner. That’s not all for Mobinnova’s Tegra announcements either: there’s also the T8 tablet, which repackages the élan in a 10.1-inch tablet form factor with GPS and HDMI out. Definitely interesting — check the full presser after the break.
