Medion's Akoya Mini E1210 - available in both silver and black

<>

Medion is the latest in a long line of manufacturers to announce the launch of a new netbook.

Called the Akoya Mini E1210, Medion claims that it is an "ultra-lightweight and compact mini laptop without compromise on features or usability."

The Akoya Mini comes with a 10in screen, uses Intel's 1.6GHz Atom N270 chip and is pre-installed with Window XP Home Edition.

The netbook's dimensions are certainly diminutive at just 260mm x 180mm x 19mm, while it weighs in at 1.2kg.

Other extras

Hard-disk space is the usual 80GB, nestled near this is 1GB DDR2 SDRAM. WiFi technology is also included, as well as three USB ports, one VGA port and a 3-in-1 card reader.

If that isn't enough to wet your whistle, then Medion has given you the option to throw in an 8x multi-standard DVD/CD writer into the mix.

The Akoya Mini E1210 is available this Sunday for £279.99. The only catch is that it's availability has been limited just to Aldi stores. Find out more at Whatlaptop.co.uk.

2. Just got hold of the latest Aldi flyer and this is listed as £299.99, so it looks like a last minute price drop.

Also the link to what laptop is incorrect, it should be http://www.whatlaptop.co.uk/Yf2yFHc.html
