This might just be the netbook we’ve been waiting for: An Nvidia Ion-powered HP Mini with an 11-inch, 1366×768 display for 400 bucks. And you can actually buy it soon! September 23. Did I mention it plays 1080p video awesomely?
It ships with Windows XP initially, though if you can wait til October, you can buy a Windows 7 model for $475—by comparison, the original “first” Ion netbook, Lenovo’s S12, is completely unavailable until October, and will be $550, with a lower res (1280×800) screen to boot.

Also up HP’s sleeve is a retake on the Mini 110 by artist Tord Boontje, engraved with a surface technology called HP Imprint 3D. Anyways, here are the specs for the 311 (sorry about the all the puns in the headline, couldn’t resistor).
