In the same online document from Verizon that listed the RIM BlackBerry PlayBook tablet as coming soon, there’s evidence that shows HP is planning to launch at least two different 4G netbooks for users to take advantage of their LTE data plans with. Pictured above, both the HP Pavilion dm1 and Compaq Mini CQ10 are listed as coming soon, and are highlighted as being “4G LTE mobile broadband capable”.

Other features of the HP Pavilion dm1 include a dual core AMD E-350 processor, 2GB RAM, 320GB hard drive, built-in webcam and an 11.6-inch HD LCD screen (1366×768). Meanwhile, the Compaq Mini CQ10 is equipped with an Intel N455 processor running at 1.66 GHz, 10-inch 1024×600 LCD screen, 1GB RAM and 250GB HDD.

No pricing info is available for either netbook, but the LTE data plans will cost just like regular 3G plans do, and that means that the highest-priced plan which offers 10GB of data will go for $80 USD. Verizon will probably release more info as we near winter 2011.

The integrated graphics which most netbooks come out with are pretty unimpressive, especially considering that their full-size counterparts (read: laptops) that are getting released these days tend to have some sort of dedicated graphics of their own. But in some instances, Intel’s GMA graphics chipset is able to hold its own when it comes to games and HD video, and this was proven in a recent demonstration at a Mobile Dev Camp event in Germany.

Pictured above is Quake III running at an average of about 35 FPS on an external monitor while connected to an MSI Wind U115–running Linux! Moblin Linux, that is. Intel’s Atom Z530 processor and GMA 500 graphics work in tandem for this one, and it’s pretty good work indeed. The same netbook was also demoed with other mobile devices playing HD video rather competently. To see the netbook in fragging action, continue reading for a video after the break.
