Olevia X10A-3GPB Is a Hello Kitty Netbook With 3G Capabilities

Remember this cool Hello Kitty C1 netbook we’ve recently introduced? Turns out it is a branded version of Olevia X10A, designated for Hong Kong markets and priced 30% cheaper than the Japanese model. Now Olevia rolls out the X10A-3GPB netbook, which boasts the same specs, including a 10.1-inch 1024×600 display, an Intel Atom 1.6GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, 120GB of HDD and other usual stuff, only with an integrated HSDPA 3G module, allowing you to surf the internet without the need for hotspots. Regretfully, there’s no word on pricing, but this release proves again that built-in 3G modules are becoming more and more common among the netbooks world.
