Now that Windows 7 is formally available, the users can go to the stores all over the world and walk out with a PC running Microsoft’s latest operating system. Going to be start soon the user will be able to get a netbook running Windows 7 from US wireless carriers in the US and Europe.

As we are already aware that the Nokia Booklet 3G would be available soon from AT&T. But Verizon has also proclaimed plans (as expected) to start providing the HP Mini 110 netbook and HP Mini 311 notebook with NVIDIA ION graphics and an Atom processor soon.

The Register has reported that 4 European telecoms will also add Windows 7 netbooks to their lineups in October and November. T-Mobile, O2, Vodafone, and Telia Sonera are among the first European wireless carriers to make proclamations.

What is not clear that whether these or other telecoms will be phasing out their Windows XP netbook delivering right away. Wireless carriers tend to be a bit behind the retail market in providing upgraded models, and the companies go through all the work of agreeing on a device to run on their network.

Corresponds to the NPD Group, Windows 7′s first days of sale showed 234 per cent increase as compared to Vista, though pre-sale offers meant total income was just 82 per cent higher.
