Samsung NC20′s Final and Official Specs Announced

Although Amazon UK has started accepting pre-orders for Samsung’s new NC20 netbook, it is only now that Samsung has issued an official announcement.

As previously reported, the Samsung NC20 will have the VIA processor instead of the usual Intel Atom CPU, specifically the 1.3GHz VIA Nano ULV Processor. Actually everything about the Samsung NC20 is bigger than the usual 10-inch netbooks in the market today.

Here are the official specs of the Samsung NC20 {via Ubergizmo}:

• Screen: 12.1” LED WXGA (1280 x 800)
