There was no official announcement of this one, but a look over Dell’s website will reveal the truth — it looks like the Mini 12 has been shuttered. It’s not hugely surprising news considering its companion, the Mini 9, was recently given the axe as well. We’ll miss them both. Sniffle.

A new model of Sony’s ultraportable VAIO P has just passed through the FCC, leading us to surmise that we can probably expect a new model in the very near future. Details are still exceedingly slim on this one, but we know that this one — model number PCG-1RSL — will be about the same size as the current VAIO P, and that it packs 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth. The documentation’s confidentiality expires in October, so we’ll know all the juicy details by then — if we haven’t already found out via other channels. Fingers crossed that it’s the ‘mark 2’ we heard about recently that could right some of those painful, painful wrongs.

€499. $717. Or three easy payments of €171 ($246). That’s the price folks in Europe are being asked to pony up for Samsung’s admittedly svelte 11.6-inch N510 netbook. As one of the largest netbooks in its class, this machine — which can purportedly last for around 6.5 hours under ideal circumstances — also packs NVIDIA’s Ion technology, but a sluggish Atom N280 is still manning the ship. If you’ll recall, we actually heard that this here rig would surface sometime this summer, but it looks as if those orders may end up pushed to September. Anyone care to place a pre-order? Or are you more interested in those “real laptops” for just north of seven Benjamins?

Call it coincidence or call it fate, but just as soon as we saw Samsung’s 11.6-inch N510 netbook go on sale across the pond, ASUS’ long-awaited 11.6-inch Eee PC 1101HA has netted itself a date with UPS here on US soil. The machine is the first in the Seashell range to boast a display larger than 11 inches, though the atypical WXGA (1,366 x 768) panel is about the only thing that’ll turn heads. Within, you’ll find an exceedingly bland array of parts: an Atom Z520 processor, 1GB of RAM, GMA 500 integrated graphics, a 160GB hard drive (still with us?), three USB 2.0 sockets, a 1.3 megapixel camera, WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth and audio in / out jacks. If you aren’t down with waiting to see what kind of netbook revolution coincides with the launch of Windows 7, you can order yours up from the links below for $429.99.

After Sony’s unorthodox VAIO P, did you really expect the outfit’s first “real netbook” to burn the house down? With Microsoft’s inane hardware restrictions still firmly in place on Windows XP-based netbooks, there’s only so much differentiating Sony can do, and evidently those subtle tweaks didn’t exactly justify the higher-than-average $499 price tag. Computer Shopper managed to give the unit a spin a few weeks prior to its US release, and while it definitely appreciated the 1,366 x 768 resolution display, the cramped keyboard, painfully lackluster 3-cell battery and commonplace performance didn’t exactly elicit huge grins across the review room. Naturally, the design here is pretty notable, but with ASUS’ Eee Seashell line already lookin’ pretty decent for a lot less cheddar, we’d agree that Sony’s going to have to do better than put a pretty face on a vanilla set of innards to get our next five Benjamins.
