HP Unveils Compaq 2230s Ultraportable
August 6th, 2008 by Dana Wollman
Last night, HP announced the Compaq 2230s, a 12.1-inch business notebook running on Intel’s new Centrino 2 platform. HP hasn’t announced a starting price yet, but given that it’s part of HP’s entry-level “s” line, we expect it to be pretty affordable. Thanks to the built-in DVD burner, it starts at 4.1 pounds, which is heavy for an ultraportable. Here’s what you get, spec-wise:
- Intel Core 2 Duo CPU up to 2.8 GHz
- 120/16/250/320GB SATA hard drive/5,400 rpm
- Up to 4GB RAM
- 4-cell battery
- 12.1 inch display/1280 x 800 native resolution
- Intel GMA 4500MHD, up to 384MB shared memory
- Intel 802.11 draft n, Bluetooth 2.0
- ExpressCard/34 slot, SD card reader
- 3 USB ports, HDMI, VGA, Ethernet, modem, headphone, mic, optional Kensington lock slot
- 3D accelerometer
- Drive encryption
- HP SpareKey
- HP File Sanitizer
- Fingerprint reader
- 11.6 x 8.9 x 1.1 inches
- Starts at 4.1 pounds

Wow, that looks like something to look forward to.
I got the HP mini-note and a MacBook, so the 2230s will be a welcome somewhere-in-between computer.
