AVIA netbook joins Sony clone parade


It's not as if we get a Sony netbook clone everyday, although it does occasionally feel that way with VAIO copies appearing left right and center. This time we've dug up a ten incher going by the ever so creative AVIA brand. Turns out that at first glance AVIA is about one stroke away from the word VAIO, which is probably more than you can say about the device itself, which smells distinctively netbook in nature. Let me introduce the AVIA N101.
Yep, make no bones about it. This guy is pure netbook. Think Atom 1.6GHz. Think 1GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive, and you're most of the way there. A 1.3 megapixel camera, a few USB ports and a card reader may also fail to raise your blood pressure. A weight of 1.3KG is decent for something with a ten inch screen and while the rest of the specs are very much standard issue, a fair bit of glam has been added to the chassis. Read on.
