We all know that Windows 7 will be launching on Oct 22nd, and at the same time Verizon will be introducing their new high-end HP Mini 311-1037NR Netbook. It will be the first Verizon Netbook to feature the Windows 7 Home Premium operating system, and will come with a 160GB HDD, 2GB RAM, Intel Atom N720 1.6GHz processor, 11.6-inch 1366x768 resolution LED backlit display, NVIDIA ION graphics chipset, Global Roaming (CDMA/EVDO/UMTS/HSPA/GSM/GPRS/EDGE), Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth, Webcam with Mic, 5-in-1 Media Card Reader, and will come with a longer lasting 6-cell battery. The price of the HP Mini 311 will be $249.99, after a $100 rebate with a 2-year contract.

Verizon is also planing to replace the HP Mini 1151NR, once the stock is depleted, with the HP Mini 110-1046NR. It will continue to use Windows XP Home Edition with SP3, but will come with a 160GB HDD (up from 80GB). The rest of the specs remain unchanged, N720 1.6GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 10.1-inch 1024x576 resolution display, Global Roaming (CDMA/EVDO/UMTS/HSPA/GSM/GPRS/EDGE), Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth, Webcam with Mic, and a 5-in-1 Media Card Reader.
