Asus EEE PC

I just went on my mums new EEE PC, they're really tidgy!!! It's got a 8.9" screen but tbh, when you're on it for so long you don't actually notice. The keys are a bit bloody small, same with the keyboard but its really really good!

Has anyone got one, or thought of buying one? I might be getting an MSI Wind, which is sorta like it but it's got a better Hard drive, and bigger screen. ^_^

I was worried about the battery life yeah, but this is a 6-cell not a 3-cell, it's the same battery as the Asus models. :P

Hello,

Personally im more interested in the newer batch of the eee-pc's, there slightly larger but have substantially improved specs including 8 hours of battery life with the new 6 cell batteries. If i had the money, id be very tempted to get me one.
The new eee-box's are another temptation :)

My EEE901 is fantastic, over 5 hour battery life and that's with bluetooth and wireless on. I have had absolutely no problems with my 901, and before I had the 901, I had a 701 which I also had no problems with.
