 ASUS Minilaptop Review October 23, 2008
We bought our mini-laptop to use on our travels and it is much better than a regular laptop, easier to get through airport security, much lighter to carry, easy to fit in hotel in-room security safes and it does the basic things we want, i.e., e-mail, search the internet, etc. We are happy with it.
Very Satisfied October 22, 2008

I've had the eeePC 1000H for about a month now. Did lots of research before buying. Having used it for awhile, I'll say I've gotten no surprises and I'm very satisfied with it. Like others, the right shift key location is a pain, but I don't type that much on it vs. other computers I have. Mostly surf the internet. Videos stream very smoothly. I've loaded several pieces of software, first transferring from CD to a 2GB flash drive, then loading no problem. The battery life is excellent- 6 cell battery is the way to go for the way I use this computer. I don't think I'd want a screen smaller than 10 inch, though. I updated the touchpad driver to the latest version with gestures, and that works pretty well, but precise placement of the cursor can still be tricky for clicking on small buttons and such. Just got a bluetooth mouse to help when I need better control. Had a friend tell me the 1.6 GHz processor may not be speedy enough for video editing, but I've not gotten into that yet, so can't say. It provides a button for overclocking, so maybe that might help. WiFi has worked just fine. Didn't come with a load of crapware, but does come with Microsoft Works and Star Office Suite which is Sun Microsystems version of Office. Works just great. Boots up quickly, runs quietly and relatively cool- no hot legs. For me, I needed XP, but I'd love to try out Ubuntu, also. Thanks for previous reviewers who helped my with my decision.
 Drop the heavy Laptop and Pick up an Eee Netbook. October 21, 2008
If you're looking for a laptop with a built-in CD/DVD drive look elsewhere. If you can live without such a feature because you use the web and SD cards then read on! I really enjoy this Netbook, it's battery lasts for 4 or 5 hours, the sound quality is good through headphones. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work well and the value for money is especially pleasing. I use it with a Sprint mobile broadband card and find I can work anywhere without carrying a cumbersome laptop around. All in all it's great. The one downside is the built-in speakers are too quiet.
This is Great! October 21, 2008
Our son is globe trotting and selected this computer after a great deal of research. He loves, loves it. So, since we travel, are older and tired of the weight of our old laptop we got one too. Our favorite feature besides the size, weight and price is the built in camera and mic. We audio/visual Skype frequently and find this so easy to use.
A negative? Only one. The Shift key on the right is in the wrong place.
Great NETBook - But not Perfect..... October 21, 2008
Please dont bash me on this...but I am a bit disappointed by this laptop for one simple and selfish reason....the RIGHT SHIFT key is way out of reach for someone that types regularly and types fast.
I bought this as a ultra-portable for traveling and for light duty email, work processing, internet, etc... It is in all aspects EXCELLENT for this type of function and MORE! The machine is FAST, quiet, has excellent battery life, and comes with just about everything a person would want in a laptop. The price is excellent.
The machine SCREAMS with 1gb RAM and I am sure that 2gb would make it scream a bit louder. For 37 bucks..it is worth it to upgrade to the 2gb.
Pros:
Price
Build Quality,
Screen Clarity
Speed
Webcam
Bluetooth
Wireless-N
Battery Life
A/C Adapter size
Everything.
Cons:
Keyboard - Right Shift Key
The problem I have with this...and the reason it is getting 4 stars and not 5.. I type regularly and I type fast. I dont usually have to think about the shift key. However, on this laptop, I have to make sure that my right 'pinky' is reaching far enough to hit the shift. To me its a major annoyance and not something I can live with.
You may not have the issue I have..in which case this machine is a 5 star product.
Great Amazon service and shipping are, of course, the icing on the cake.
Thanks..
