Sony VAIO VPC-W211AX/W 10-Inch White Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life
Works well. The design looks good. I put extra memory, change the original 1 gb for 2gb but I think Windows 7 is a little “heavy”.

Great little notebook with the best graphics available on the market at the present. This little jewel is light, has a long battery life and picks up those WiFi sites with ease while traveling. Can’t go wrong and Amazon makes it all the more easy to purchase. Don’t forget the external DVD drive…

Samsung GO N310-13GB 10.1-Inch Midnight Blue Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life Review

Samsung GO N310-13GB 10.1-Inch Midnight Blue Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life
This is a great little machine for travel and checking email–surfing the web. It may be a little slower than a regular laptop, but the size and lightweight features make it worth any lag time. I wouldn’t want it as my only computer since I’m at the screen all day, but for travel and sporadic use, it can’t be beat. Love the keyboard.

  • 1.6 GHz Intel Atom Processor
  • 1GB DD2R RAM
  • 160GB Hard Drive
  • Windows XP Home, Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life (6 Cell 8850mAh)

Toshiba Mini NB205-N313/P 10.1-Inch Posh Pink Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N313/P 10.1-Inch Posh Pink Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life
I’m a student and bought this netbook for taking notes, battery life and portability. It has been wonderful. My only problem was with a faulty audio software install that made the headphone jack not function. A random reboot when trying to install printer software solved the problem. Also, the speaker is tiny and you can barely hear on full volume, so you definitely need external speakers/headphones for music or videos. The battery life is fantastic - it lasts anywhere from 6-8 hours, recharges quickly, and lasts for days when hibernating. The appearance is great, overall an excellent purchase for everyday use.

ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PE-MU27-BK 10.1-Inch Black Netbook with Kindle for PC (11 Hours of Battery Life) Review

ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PE-MU27-BK 10.1-Inch Black Netbook with Kindle for PC (11 Hours of Battery Life)
I just purchased this netbook after my previous Asus (the dependable S101) died b/c the screen was damaged by my own carelessness. So with that in mind, here’s my quick take on the 1005PE MU27 model, which I received yesterday.

Samsung N150 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life Review

Samsung N150 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life
I ordered this computer last week and have been very happy with it. I use it for video chatting, internet, and word processing. The Windows 7 Starter is nice and it gives you Word for 60 days for free. The webcam is nice and does the job on skype. I picked this netbook over others because of the keyboard. The keys are a bit more separated than other netbooks which I loved. I’ve had no trouble typing at all. The computer picked up my wireless internet right off of the bat, better than my old laptop did. The battery life is awesome…I have to plug it in every couple of days but that’s it. The screen does take a little getting use to as I’ve had to zoom in a few times to really see something when I’m online shopping, but I’d rather have that then be carrying around a huge heavy laptop with a shorter battery life.

Acer Aspire One AOD250-1610 10.1-Inch Ruby Red Netbook - 6.5 Hour Battery Life
I bought this little Acer netbook for my 12 year old son. He LOVES IT!!!! HE CAN PLAY ON-LINE GAMES WITH HIS FRIENDS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS FROM HIS SCHOOL. It was the best investment I’ve ever made for him!! Was totally worth it and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a small computer. I also have one and I use it for social networking as well as on-line banking. Great product!!

MSI U230-033US 12.1-Inch Netbook - 4 Hour Battery Life Review

MSI U230-033US 12.1-Inch Netbook - 4 Hour Battery Life
I’d never heard of MSi - before browsing online for a laptop a couple months ago, but must say I am very impressed with the quality of this little laptop! It’s nicer than the 00 Dell I use at the office.

At 12″, this computer was the perfect size for me. I was underwhelmed by the traditional 10″ netbooks when I tried them out at a local retailer - screen was too small for me, and I didn’t care for the cramped keyboard. Nor the Windows 7 starter edition or slow CPU.

Toshiba Mini NB305-N410BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook - 11 Hours of Battery Life Review

Toshiba Mini NB305-N410BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook - 11 Hours of Battery Life
I’m very happy with this notebook. Excellent screen, very comfortable to type. Battery life is excellent. Had to remove few trial programs and it took me 15 minutes to clean it up.
I also had download an updated driver for the speakers as under existing driver the sound is very very low. Surprisingly, Toshiba does not have an updated driver listed on their website, so I had to get it from Realtek website. Once I did that, the sound improved significantly and I keep it in 60-70% level now. There is a topic on Toshiba board that discusses about this issue and solution in details. Fix does work. (at least in my case).
In regards to vibration issue, I also did get the notification that my hard drive was moved to safe location, but other than that, it did not affect the performance of the netbook. I just checked off this notification to not to see in the future.
I bought this notebook mostly for internet, Skype and movies. And once i solved the sound issue, everything work really good. No problem with Skype and playing different format movies. (I did install VLC player that plays everything without any issues).
This notebook does get hot, but I think this is the issue with most of the notebooks.
I also ordered 2GB RAM, but not because it’s needed, just to have it ;-)
