Samsung confirms 11 inch Series 9 notebook, coming in mid-April

Samsung has just announced its new 11-inch Series 9 notebook which shall be available through Best Buy and other retailers and e-tailers starting mid-April. This 11-inch Series 9 notebook will be preloaded with Windows 7 Home Premium and packed with a 64GB HDD.
