Compaq CQ61 hits Orange UK

Compaq-cq61As well as introducing the ASUS Eee 1005HGO netbook on to their network, Orange also are offering the Compaq CQ61 notebook along with a dongle for mobile web browsing.

The Compaq CQ61 notebook is available with a number of data plans ranging from 18 to 24 months. However, unlike the Asus 1005HGO, most plans need you to pay a fee up front to get this notebook. Prices start at £29.36 on a 1GB 18 month contract, but you will need to pay £130 for the notebook. If you pay about £35/month on a 24 month contract then you can get the notebook for free. Pricing details here.

The notebook is a bit more powerful than the Eee 1005HGO. It runs Windows 7 Home Premium, has an AMD Sempron M100 processor and a 15.6 inch screen as well as a 250GB hard drive.
