The up and coming availability of the Gateway LT2016u on Verizon has been widely reported throughout the tech blogosphere to date and now we can confirm that the Verizon Gateway LT2016u netbook, which comes with integrated 3G connectivity (supplementing its WiFi capabilities), is up for grabs as of…now.

In terms of specifications and features the Verizon Gateway LT2016u netbook offers pretty much exactly what you’d expect from a pretty much run-of-the-mill netbook in being powered by a 1.6GHz  Intel Atom N270 CPU, offering just 1GB DDR2 SDRAM whilst, in terms of storage capacity, you’re looking at the standard 160GB HDD. Here’s the complete low-down…

Verizon Gateway LT2016u Netbook Key Specifications:

• 10.1-inch 1024 x 600 (WSVGA) resolution backlit TFT LCD
• Intel Atom N270 processor (1.60 GHz, 512 KB L2 cache, 533 MHz FSB)
