The netbook market is growing fast, and it could be tough to keep up with the latest products on the market. Many companies are in the process of releasing new models to the market. We are not talking about small improvements here. It’s nice to see more netbook manufacturers adopt N280 on their new models, but we are seeing companies that are adding fingerprint readers, DVD writers, and … to their netbooks.

If you want to buy a netbook but want to wait till a new model is out, here are a few options that you should look out for:

1. Eee PC 1004DN: not only you get a DVD writer with this Asus Eee, but also a fingerprint reader to keep your info secure. And it does help that you get 120 GB of storage on this device.

2. Gigabyte T1028 TouchNote: Gigabyte T1028 TouchNote comes with a swivel touch screen, N280 CPU and wireless N support. Plus, you get a 160 HDD to get started.

3. Dell Inspiron 13: Dell netbooks are getting larger and larger when it comes to screen size. First it was Mini 12, now it’s Inspiron 13.

4. Samsung NC20: Samsung certainly knows how to make a great netbook. NC10 is still one of the more popular netbooks on the market. With NC20, you get a 12.1 inch screen and a 120 GB hard drive. Plus you get VIA Nano processor and VX800 chipset. No ATOM processor here (which could be a good thing).

It’d be also interesting to see how Lenovo proceeds with its Thinkpad netbook line. One thing is for certain: the consumers are going to have a lot of options to choose from for their netbook.

Your take: which netbook are you most excited about?
