Intel maybe a little late in shipping its Classmate netbook to the UK now that our UK friends have the Eee PC 901 into their shore, but still the Classmate netbook which is released by Actronix in the UK may just be worth a look.

Released under a new branding, which is JumpPC, this small and relatively cheap netbook features:

• 900MHz Intel Celeron Mobile processor
• 512MB RAM
• 2GB Flash storage (or a 30GB HDD)
• 7-inch 800x480 LCD display
• 2 USB ports
• 10/100MB/s Ethernet
• 802.11 b/g WIFI
• webcam
• Windows XP Home Edition.

The JumpPC has a price tag of around $474 and is available for pre-orders at JumpPC product site.
