Hardware, Embedded Systems The time is finally here: the first VIA Nano-based notebook! As promised, Samsung is the first to use VIA's Nano platform, but contrary to expectations, the NC20 isn't a netbook. It's a normal laptop, albeit small. Still, this is the first VIA Nano laptop, and therefore, deserves attention.

I'm really eyeing up that 12.1 inch model and what is even better it uses Atheros wireless chipset (great for those of us who wish to run a non-Microsoft operating system). The only downside is the price quoted being 499 Euro's, which is around NZ$1000 - I wonder if the 499 Euro's include VAT because if that is the case then maybe the price will be cheaper.


Yes, in Spain it's sold for 499.95 euro VAT included. That's 431 without VAT.

But I just found that in the UK it's also available [1] for 377.78 pounds VAT included (that's 426.54 euro, or 73.5 euro cheaper than in Spain, lovely). Without VAT that's around 371 euros.
