I think it is the Samsung ARM9 533mhz, not Cortex A9, yet I have it right here and I am testing it, even though one would think ARM9 would make it slow, it browses the web nearly at full speed which is really awesome. I think Google has done some kind of magic to optimize the regular Android 1.5 web browser, where the Android 2.1 web browser is probably even better, and with upcoming support for Flash. I will post a video review of this laptop on my site showing the web browsing speed as soon as possible.

Except in these $69-200 7″ ARM netbooks, there’s three different families of ARM9 SoC being used – an Anyka ~200-266 MHz chip, a few Samsung ~400-533 MHz chips, and a Wondervision/VIA ~400-533 MHz chip.

The interviewed lady said ARM 9, not ARM Cortex A9.

It is possible, that she meant Cortex A9 because ARM9 processors are AGES OLD and unlikely to be put into a netbook
