So it was supposed to be released this week, but where was it? What’s the hold up?
Well previous news suggested a particular US retailer had an exclusive sales deal with Samsung to sell the first round of U.S NC20’s, however there has been no news from the retailer or Samsung.
Thanks to our readers who sent us this link to USA laptopmag website review of the Samsung NC20.
Whilst the review is for the Korean version, the article does have a few interesting points in there:
Just to give you an update on U.K supplier information and pricing. It seems the Samsung NC 20 has seen a slight change in prices at some stores. Amazon has raised the price of their machine from £390 to £419 (inc VAT). There is some good news; Dabs and BT Shop are selling the machine for £379 (inc VAT).
As always we’ll keep updating our suppliers page as soon as we hear of any more changes.
Finally the news our american readers have been waiting for. The USA release date! According to reliable sources on the web the release date is set at 16th March 2009. Initial sales will be limited to the online retailer newegg.com with more stores expected to have stock later in the march.
A quick search returns no information about the NC20, as ever we’ll be keeping our eye on the site to see if the rumours are true.
