If you’ve been eyeballing mini-notebooks like the Acer Aspire One, Asus Eee PC, and HP 2133, have I got a site for you. Liliputing lists all current and upcoming mini notebooks (a.k.a. netbooks, ultraportables, and “liliputers”), making it easy to compare and contrast the different models.

In its default “list” view, you see a table showing the name, specs, and price of each model, along with a photo. Clicking any field name (CPU, price, etc.) sorts the list accordingly. You can also switch between spreadsheet and summary views, and export the data to any number of formats (Excel, PDF, etc.).

Best of all, if you click the name of any given model, you get a product overview, a capsule review, or a blog-like collection of related posts. Alas, you can’t select specific models to display, which would be helpful if you were trying to make a choice between two or three. But this is still an incredibly helpful tool for anyone trying to navigate the suddenly-crowded mini-notebook waters. [vai Gizmodo]

    Personally, I still can't see the appeal of these mini-notes, though I am curious to check out Dell's upcoming offering. Looks pretty slick.
