Designed by Vivienne Tam

It appears that HP's collaboration with worldwide famous designer Vivienne Tam will extend to even more portable computer systems coming from the leading manufacturer of notebooks. That's right, HP is expected to introduce even more of those red-colored, peony flowers-adorned notebooks we told you about yesterday. Also then, the company showcased an ultraportable system, during a genuine fashion presentation. The interesting thing about the new system is that it resembles the company's Mini-Note 2133 almost down to a point, but packs an impressive number of major design changes.

 

LaptopMag was lucky enough to be present at the fashion show, and had a chance to take a look at the new sub-notebook from HP. As you can see from the included product pictures, HP’s latest offering features the same exterior design, with the glossy red coloring with peony flowers, that we saw as of yesterday. However, at this point, it is yet unclear whether this is, in fact, the only Vivienne Tam-designed notebook HP is expected to roll out. All we know is that, given its size and overall design, the small ultra-portable computer system is certain to get the attention of all female users out there.

 

Despite the fact that no technical details on the netbook's internal configuration are available, LaptopMag reports that the small-sized portable computer system features a 10-inch display, unlike the 8.9-inch on the original Mini-Note 2133. The displayed model also had the same 92 percent keyboard featured on HP's first netbook system, as well as the same touchpad with the mouse buttons placed on the right and left side of the pad.

 

The netbook also offers a built-in webcamera, mounted on top of the 10-inch display, while two speakers sit below it. No word yet on the official price tag and release date, but speculation has it that HP will release the new ultra-portable mini-note before this year's holidays. And it is then that we will also find out whether it is equipped with the same VIA-supporting configuration, as well as if the company turned to Intel for its netbook computing power.
