HP’s Pavilion dv3500t Its First 13.3-Inch Notebook, Appropriately Coloured Bronze
9:00AM Matt Buchanan | How did HP, the second largest computer maker in the US, get away with not having a 13.3-inch notebook for so damn long? It’s like the perfect notebook size. The Pavilion dv3500t is their first, which is its most exceptional feature, actually. Otherwise, it’s a pretty standard collection of the latest in notebook silicon—with specs running up to a 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM and 400GB hard drive, with a 512MB Nvidia GeForce 9300M as standard—dipped in a kind of attractive liquid bronze candy coating. It starts at $US1000, and congrats on finally getting there, HP. [HP via Laptoping] More »

This alternative to huge boxes shoved full of styrofoam has reduced HP’s individual consumer packaging by an outrageous 97%. More »

HP Pavillion DV Series Notebooks Redesigned with Magic Chrome, Blu-ray, HD Tuners and More
6:00PM Benny Goldman | HP overhauled its feature-packed consumer DV notebooks, the familiar black-and-silver ID getting a “magic chrome” enhancement: otherwise invisible controls light-up when touched. It’s the first new look for the Pavilion line since 2006. The entire line features HD tuners, Blu-ray drives, webcams, fingerprint readers and built-in 3G internet. Here’s a closer look at the line, as well as a newest TX tablet PC and the XB4, the laptop dock equivalent of Batman’s utility belt. The Pavilion dv4 is the baby of the bunch at 14.1″. It has a maximum 320GB hard drive and 3 USB ports. Base price is $800 for an AMD processor or $1000 for Intel, and they’ll be on sale in September. More »
