Hey,

So, I need a netbook and was hoping you guys could help :P

Basically it needs 1GB RAM if it comes with XP, 2GB if it comes with 7 and it has to come with Bluetooth.

Any help? :P

Shop around for them though, argos can be a bit crappy, but them netbooks are good ones

If you don't mind me asking, with your phone, why do you need one, Tom?

Just FYI:
Celeron - More powerful / worse battery life
Atom - Less powerful / better battery life

I'd suggest finding one designed for Windows 7 and downgrading to XP for added performance.

Sometimes it's easier to use a keyboard you can feel your fingers on and a bigger screen in a way. :P

I suppose that's true.

It's not for me, if I need a netbook I just use my work one :P

Dell Inspiron Mini, using one now and after 2 weeks of not using another computer, weirdly it feels like a full sized laptop. Comes with options for bluetooth and other stuff yada yada

Ill look into the Dell, the NC10 just seems very outdated tbh.

I have an Acer netbook and its having a few problems. But i don't know if its the make or just my netbook. So for that i wouldn't recommend that make. But i hear that the Dell inspiron mini is quite good

I'd get one with a CULV, and avoid the Atom like the plague. It's up to you though.

Can't you just get one of them mini USB Bluetooth Dongles, would open up the search a little bit and they're easy/cheap to get hold of;
