It doesn’t get much more portable than this.,
I bought my Eee PC two weeks ago and I must say that so far, I am very pleased with it.
Simply put, the Eee is a normal laptop shrunk to a size just a bit larger than a standard DVD box. It has everything you would expect from a standard laptop, only smaller.
With that in mind, there are a few caveats if you intend to buy one:
1) The keyboard is small. This is fine, if, like me, you have small and nimble fingers and can live with a few typos. If, on the other hand, you have fat fingers and like to type quickly and flawlessly, get a full-sized laptop.
2) The screen is equally very small at just 7 inches. If your eyesight is good and you can live with the 800 by 480 resolution, go for it. If you expect to use stuff like photoshop, again, go with a larger device.
3) The internal storage is very limited with just 4 gigabytes. You will have to buy an 8 or 16 gig SDHC card if you intend to install additional programs.
Provided you accept the Eee’s limitations, you will find that you have an ultraportable laptop that does pretty much everything you could want from it. Surfing is obviously easy, the Wi-Fi is of good quality and picks up networks in places I didn’t expect to get any. Also, the screen is just about the perfect size to watch streaming media like Youtube.
Mind you, when I say “ultraportable” I mean it. I carry my Eee in my coat pocket all the time. At less than a kilo, it will not weigh you down. Also, the battery life is adequate and can easily go up to three and a half hours with light use.
The operating system that is installed on the Eee, a modified Linux distribution is adequate. It is easy to use, but requires some getting used to if you want to go ahead and modify it or add your own programs. I would strongly recommend you install a trimmed-down Windows XP or another, more commonly used Linux distribution, such as Ubuntu. Asus has already released Eee PCs with Windows XP on them, you might want to wait for those to become available.
So you can surf with it, you can type on it, you can run pretty much every business software. But how about games? Because let’s face it, gaming is a large part of the PC industry.
Well, you can run a lot of games on the Eee PC. Pretty much anything from 2005 or earlier should work, though some games will require tweaking due to the unusual screen resolution. I have personally tested Unreal Tournament 2003 and Warcraft III on it, and they run perfectly. That said, don’t expect it to run recent graphic-intensive games well. It IS after all, a 900 Mhz Celeron with an integrated graphics solution. Also, bear in mind that gaming will usually require you to install Windows, as many games will refuse to run under Linux.
Accesories I recommend you get, if you want to go beyond the basic functions of the Eee PC are an 8 or 16 gigabyte SDHC card for additional storage, a memory upgrade to 1 gig and a USB 3G modem.
All in all, you will not find a better value for money laptop in the sub-notebook form factor anywhere, though, as usual, Amazon is hardly the cheapest seller in the world.

Amazing!!,
Got an Eee the other day and using it to write this review. The xandros operating system in easy mode is pretty and very easy to use, especially if you have not had any experience of linux before. I have had ubuntu for a few years and so it was easy to add more programs that I wanted, whereas someone without this experience might find it hard to do such operations.
The actual unit is really cute and feels really sturdy, especially the hinges. I mainly got this as I am a student and need something portable. When I saw an article about the Eee in micromart magazine I immediately wanted to have one.
One thing which I will say to people who haven’t got one of these yet and are thinking of getting one, is that Asus are going to bring out a second generation model very soon so hold out to see what this is like and whether the price goes up a lot. They are adding xp to it, better wifi compatibility, and maybe a slightly bigger screen!

A ultraportable for £220!!,
This little laptop is great, comes with the Xandros operating system including OpenOffice a MS office alternative that is full compatible with Microsoft Office documents. The default operating system is very functional and has a simple interface, this can be altered to offer a more windows like experience, or a different OS can be installed (I’m running Ubuntu).
The wireless card has drivers that support monitor and promiscuous mode, wireshark etc work out of the box using apt-get making this a great pentesting platform if thats your thing.
The battery lasts well and the device is small but the keyboard is big enough to touch type on.
If you need anymore info checkout eeeusers web forum.
