AMD made it clear that it had no desire to compete in the netbook space and that it would rather put its money on the lightweight and inexpensive HP Pavilion dv2 (1030-us) to fill the void between netbooks and expensive ultraportables. The dv2 had the budget ultraportable space all to itself—at least for a brief period—until Intel's CULV (Consumer Ultra Low Voltage) processors came in and completely rained on HP and AMD's parade. As the netbook category grows and Intel's consumer ultra-low voltage class rolls in, HP's ultraportable Pavilion dv2-1030us is being pushed out of the game faster than it came in.

Comment
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3410: Entry level dedicated GPU from AMD which supports only PCI-E 1.1 (3430 and upwards support PCI-E 2.0). Technically a slower clocked HD 3430/3450.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

MV-40: Slow single core processor for small and thin laptops. A bit faster than Atom based systems but the power consumption is also higher.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
