iOS 27 Beta Is Out, But You'll Need to Join a Waitlist to Try the New Siri AI Everything Apple Announced at WWDC 2026 Image Playground, Photo Spacial Reframe and New Editing Tools in iOS 27 Apple Puts a Siri Camera Mode on iPhone, Visual Intelligence Across All Platforms Safari Gets AI Tab Organization, Notify Me, and Custom Extensions in iOS 27

There were earlier reports of this new 10.1″ netbook from Dell some time last month but based on email sent in by their PR firm, the Dell Latitude 2100 could be available in the Philippines anytime soon.

The Latitude 2100 is designed to be rugged and for student use. That built-in shoulder strap is a little bit odd though.

supposed to be for budget conscious.

Malamang makapal ang outer layer nito. hindi sya lalagyan ng optional strap kung hindi matibay ang labas.

Sir, off all the netbooks that are coming out, i barely can’t decide whether what to buy, brand, specs, etc… could you do a review summary of all the netbooks that you have been reviewed (suggest to rank them) and ill buy as soon as you have the review..thanks!

Kelvin Servigon · 17 years ago

hindi ko masyadong gusto ung design ng netbook.. pero maganda kung touchscreen! :D

mygadget · 17 years ago

wow… it’s really look like a ‘notebook’.

Reel Advice · 17 years ago

looks pretty cool with all the different colors. and honestly, i find the strap a very unique feature – not an odd one!

Nino Natividad · 17 years ago

Wow.. it really looks cool. I hope it is also water-proof and super shock proof. Very ideal for students (especially those on their 9th year.. hehe..just kidding.)

You can remove the strap and i doubt it’s waterproof ;)

ricojake · 17 years ago

Jhay is right.. you can’t simply seen roaming around with that strap. Delikado. About sa price, hope its not that expensive.

Jhay · 17 years ago

The strap, though cool, is something not advisable here in the Philippines. It’s a dead giveaway that you’re carrying something valuable out in our streets. ;)
