If Acer’s Aspire 1410T (aka the Timeline 1810T) took your fancy but you’re a multitouch convert, how about a convertible tablet version of the same ultraportable notebook? macles have spotted the Acer Aspire Timeline 1820T, ostensibly the same 11.6-inch 1,366 x 768 notebook with an Intel CULV 1.4GHz Core 2 Solo SU3500 processor and 2GB of RAM, but gaining a rotating screen hinge and a multitouch-capable touchscreen.
Acer’s latest ultraportable notebook, the Aspire 1410 – the US version of the Timeline 1810T – has shown up for sale at CostCentral. Priced at a reasonable $460.33, the 11.6-inch 1,366 x 768 notebook packs an Intel CULV 1.4GHz Core 2 Solo SU3500 processor and 2GB of RAM into a slimline casing strikingly similar to that of the Acer Aspire One 751h we reviewed yesterday.
It’s probably fair to say that we haven’t been particularly impressed with what we’ve heard about Acer’s Aspire One 751. The phrase “pretty but dumb” has been muttered more than once, an aesthetically pleasing machine but one lacking in processing power. So when Acer offered us the latest version, the AO751h-1522, we jumped at the opportunity to see how it holds up to our own exacting standards. Check out the full review after the cut
Considering we were so quietly excited about the upcoming 7-inch Viliv S7 last week (and, frankly, before), we can’t really argue with this new touchscreen convertible netbook either. The Suzuki Neutron 701 MNI has a name that’s both daft and reminiscent of early Eee PC models, but inside there’s that same Intel Atom Z520 processor that keeps popping up to frustrate us.
We didn’t especially like the Z520 when it came in the Acer Aspire One 751 – in fact we felt it hopelessly undermined it – but there’s always the chance that the dainty Suzuki might make better use of its equally-dainty CPU.

ASUS' 11.6-inch Eee PC 1101HA has finally made it to retail, with the 1.33GHz Atom Z520 ultraportable landing at Amazon. $429.99 gets you not only the 1101HA's 1,366 x 768 LED-backlit panel, but a 160GB hard-drive and 1GB of RAM. According to ASUS, the 1101HA's battery is good for up to 10hrs runtime.
The weekend is here again fellow geeks and geekettes so I am back with another week in review. Monday more rumors surfaced that has Apple launching that long anticipated tablet device this November. The rumors further claim that the tablet will be aimed at gaming and media use. Early this week Verizon cut the pricing on all its smartphones save a few of the new ones to $99. That makes us think lots of new smartphone hardware is on its way.
Acer’s Aspire Timeline 1810T ultraportable has begun to show up in the wild, with at least two sites – ITC.ua and PCHome.net – getting their hands on the CULV ultraportable. As you might expect, first impressions are that – in terms of the hardware you can see – the 1810T is very similar to the Acer Aspire One 751 it in effect replaces; unfortunately there’s no benchmarking feedback as yet to prove whether the ultraportable runs better than its lethargic predecessor.
Acer have officially announced the Aspire Timeline 1810T, the company’s latest CULV ultraportable and the effective replacement to the Aspire One 751. Spotted to preorder yesterday, the Timeline 1810T has now made an appearance on the Acer site.
Pre-order pages for Acer’s Aspire Timeline 1810T CULV ultraportable have seemingly confirmed the 11.6-inch notebook’s price. The 1810T, Acer’s 1.4GHz SU3500 replacement for the underpowered Aspire One 751, is available to preorder from European online store Notebook.de, at €499 ($711) including tax.
Details on the 3G-equipped Timeline 1810T after the cut
Acer’s plan to replace the Aspire One 751 netbook with an 11.6-inch Timeline ultraportable – which we reported last month - has apparently come to fruition with this, the Acer Aspire Timeline 1810T. According to macles, the 11.6-inch 1366 x 758 16:9 notebook swaps the AO751’s anemic Atom Z520 processor for an Intel ULV SU3500 1.4GHz CPU, up to 4GB of RAM and the Intel GS45 Express Chipset with integrated GMA 4500MHD graphics and hardware HD video decoding.
