This better surface under another brand - I won't even consider buying this branded as Advent since PC World customer support is awful.

Any plans for a SSD version of this? Standard HDD in a netbook is a bit pointless IMO

I knew that I was missing something...the scrren is tiny, meaning the laptop will also be tiny! So it's portable at 1.12KG, how smart am I?!?!?!

Is it better than an EEE ?

Wider screen, 1024x600 but bigger and a standard laptop HDD instead of SSD.

The atom won't be any quicker than the EEE's celeron though.

This might be of interest to you...

The SSD Power Consumption Hoax : Flash SSDs Don’t Improve Your Notebook Battery Runtime – they Reduce It

http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/ssd-hd...iew-31019.html

I suspect it's reasonable to take it with a touch of salt for now since no other sites have done their own independent testing along the same lines to confirm it one way or another. However, as it stands, it does make for some interesting reading

At least there's a chance that you could replace the drive in the future.... not sure why you'd bother though.

Still not sure why this has popped out of nowhere cheaper than the EEE or MSI Wind pre-orders.

I've ordered.

Heat and rep added.

Was waiting for the 901 but this looks more usable, keyboard wise.

(Also cheaper)
