Verizon getting ready with HP Mini 311 and HP Mini 110

Verizon will sell these notebooks at a subsidized price

 The age of subsidized netbooks/notebooks has still not come but we are seeing more and more operators bundling up newly launched devices with their existing plans. In order to be really successful with this type of business model, the operators need to sell these devices at very low prices, which frankly not everyone can offer. Still companies like Verizon are keen on launching new models with their plans. Verizon outlets are getting ready to offer users the all new HP Mini 311 and HP Mini 110 global 3G-equipped devices at subsidized prices when they sign up a contract.
