NEC Announces Ultra-Light, Fairly Thin Type VS Notebook

While the netbook market is already mighty crowded, NEC has decided to enter the fray with their UltraLite Type VS.
The Type VS will pack a 1.86GHz Intel Atom Z540, 1GB of RAM, and a 64GB SSD. Along with this, it’ll have a 10.6-inch 1208x768 screen, three USB ports, Ethernet, an SD card reader and weigh roughly a pound and a half.
As for the price, it’ll run the average Japanese consumer ¥176,000 ($1,850). While it does pack some pretty solid hardware, that price is awfully hard to condone in the netbook market.
