Gloss Find: HP Vivienne Tam Digital Clutch

Posted on March 4, 2010 by Lolita Carrico

When it was first announced, I was salivating over the HP Vivienne Tam “Digital Clutch” — a must-have netbook that does double-duty as a chic fashion accessory. At the time, I could barely wait for the gold, butterfly-adorned mini-laptop to be available. After much waiting, the time has come!

Inspired by the classic Chinese love story “Butterfly Lovers,” fashion designer Vivienne Tam was also inspired by the idea of “bringing contrasting worlds together.” The HP Mini 210 Vivienne Tam Edition does so beautifully — with gorgeous aesthetics on the outside and in, and packs a lot of power for a 2.7-pound device that can easily slip into your purse.

With 2 GB of memory, hard drive options up to 320 GB plus 5.5 hours of battery life packed into a 1-inch thin case, fashionistas can be productive, listen to music (thanks to Beats™ by Dr. Dre™, HP’s high-performance audio software) or connect with friends on social networks — all while on the go.
