"Good Lightweight Travel Tool."
Pros: Low noise, Very light weight & easy to handle (appealling feature). Reasonably fast with the Linux O/S and solid state hard 4GB drive.
Cons: Keyboard quality stinks. Annoying. There's a software scripting bug (in mine) for the wireless Atheros card to set up the interface to connect to a SSID wireless access point. Annoying. ASUS probably fixed this I'd hope but not sure.
Summary: It is very convenient for me. Especially having to take it out at the airport TSA's checkpoints or anywhere worldwide airport security. I travel a lot and only use it for jumping on the internet & e-mails. Look at the 9" before buying this one.
Updated on Feb 27, 2009Also, I've had mine for about a year now. I had wished I would have waited to get the 9" one. The biggest annoying aspect of this laptop is that the wi-fi, Atheros wireless card has a bug in it. The scripting can actually take a ridiculously long time to recognize SSID's and then make the connection. I absolutely abhor this part of it. And, with the keyboard's keys one must "bang" very firmly on them to get them to type properly.
