We first spotted the HP Mini 210, aka HSTNN-Q46C, on the FCC back in December 2009.  At that time, all we had were label pics of the device.  Today, HP passed the same netbook through the FCC, this time with an upgraded Ralink WLAN module, a new chiclet keyboard, and an interesting pinkish, plaid color scheme.

HP has made an effort to make its Mini Series netbooks more unique, offering imprints from Tord Boontje and Vivienne Tam.  We don’t see any designer-branding on this Mini 210, but the pink plaid color scheme is definitely targeted towards a fashion conscious, female crowd.

Additionally, pics of this Mini 210 show what appears to be a new chiclet keypad that features shallow, rounded keys.  This isn’t a big change from the other Mini 210 models – it’s almost like HP just sanded down the keys.

This version of the Mini 210 also has a Gobi2000, for worldwide 3G connectivity, while its Ralink WiFi card supports 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi.

Personally, I wouldn’t be caught dead with this thing, but it is nice to see that HP is customizing its Mini line to appeal to specific market segments.  No word on pricing or availability.
