Step right up and grab yourselves a Blue H1 Ultra-Mobile PC (or netbook, if you will). It does not sport an Intel processor. LCD monitor is still at 7 inches. The 40Gig HDD is a welcome space. But with a tag price of 9,995 pesos, how could you say no?
Last April the Blue H1 was first seen at the malls with a tag price of 16,998 pesos. It sports a 1GHz Via C7 processor, 1Gig memory, 40Gig HDD, Wi-Fi, Card Reader, and Webcam. It was a better option if you can't put up with the Asus EEE PC 2G/4G/8G netbook options which was around the same price point.
Now, the price has dropped to less than 10,000 pesos edging the lower end 2G (512MB) Asus EEE which is still priced around 12,000. This is probably the 1st netbook to reach below 10,000 pesos in the Philippines. Talk about portability meeting affordability.
The Blue H1 is a capable netbook for basic use which is what UMPC's or netbooks are all about. No need to argue about the brand. Just get yourself a decent warranty and it's good to go.
