I first wrote about the rather dull Epson Endeavor Na01 netbook last November. Today, the word is that the Epson Endeavor Na01 netbook has been officially revisited from the original black to white. Nothing to get excited about until you learn that there’s also a price drop thrown into the mix too which is the newsworthy aspect of this post.

“There’s a certain glamour to the netbook. They come in bright, flighty colors and offer the promise of fun, of computing on the go. Nobody ever thinks of slipping a netbook into a briefcase. Its natural home is a purse or a manbag.

But now Epson, the glitz-free printer maker, is in on the game. The Endeavor Na01 might sound like a Star Trek spaceship, but it’s all dull grey plastic, all of the time. Internally it differs not a jot from the standard netbook — 1.6GHz Atom processor, triple USB ports, 10.2 inch screen, 160GB HDD and XP home. You know the rest.”

That’s a good point given that one of the argument in the case for netbooks over laptops is the design aspect of these mini-notebooks.
