Jkk points us to a quick video of the upcoming Samsung N310. Take a look a the video below. As I mentioned when we first saw the N310, I don’t quite see how customers will differentiate this from the N110. Both are running extremely similar specs and the only major differences seem to be aesthetics and a chilet keyboard on the N310 vs. a standard laptop keyboard on the N110 [Portal comparison of N110 and N310]. It seems like some people might be turned off by the single color matte design of the N310 but I think it looks decent. The largely rounded edges and giant Samsung logo on the back make the unit look somewhat fat. If Samsung is really intending for the N310 netbook to be semi-rugged, I don’t understand why they didn’t take additional steps such as fitting it with an SSD.

I’ve been running a poll regarding Sammy fans thoughts on this design, as expected the results are fairly split. I guess anyone who doesn’t like it can just get the new N110!
