Fujitsu unveils world’s first MeeGo netbook, world barely notices

It hasn’t been a terribly good week for MeeGo , but there’s a scant silver lining in the cloud — the first MeeGo netbook has arrived in Singapore, courtesy of Fujitsu. Actually, to be precise, it’s the first netbook to ship with MeeGo preinstalled, as Fujitsu’s simply shoehorned the lightweight operating system onto its existing LifeBook MH330 machine. Sadly, the MH330′s about as boring as they come — it’s a plain vanilla 1.66GHz Intel Atom N455 ultraportable with 1GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive and a 10.1-inch 1024 x 600 LED-backlit screen. The company says it’s customized MeeGo to take advantage of hardware buttons, but other than that there’s nothing noteworthy here, just a (roughly $400) netbook that managed to find a place in the annals of history for being the first to preinstall an operating system that’s already on the outs — albeit a very pleasant, quickly-booting one. PR after the break.
