 Netbook perfect February 19, 2009

I was unsure of the make and type of netbook I wanted. I researched netbooks for weeks, going to different retailers and physically handling and operating the Acer Aspire One and several different ASUS models. I finally chose the Acer. To me the Acer proved to be the best quality product, not only in feel but also operability. Amazon offered the Acer at an excellent price and it arrived with the 5800 battery, providing extra long usage ability. There is no comparison to the portability offered by the netbook compared to my Gateway and Dell laptops.

Both of kids got 8.9 HP's for Christmas. I thought they were small and probably wouldn't do a good job. Well, I can't get the kids off of them. So I had to punish my daughter for a few days by taking her laptop. When she was asleep, I used it. WOW, I had so much fun on it, that I used it to research and find my 10.1 Acer. It came yesterday. My kids love the blue. Oddly enough, it matches my car and it is the school colors. I am so "hip" now. I used it immediately. I hooked up a mouse to it and off I went. I L-O-V-E it. I think I will call her Daisy. I keep talking about it to anyone who will listen. I think I may get my girlfriend one. She is not computer saavy, but that is the great thing. This netbook is super easy to use. I completely recommend it.
Great Mini, HIGHLY recommend especially while they ship with a 5800mh battery. February 19, 2009

I just received my mini yesterday and I love it. Much better than I expected although it takes a little (just a bit) getting use to the slightly smaller keyboard thanks to my fat fingers. The screen is great, it is nice and bright, as is the overall feel of the unit. It feels quite sturdy and is so quiet you wonder if it even has a spinning harddrive (it does). It stays cool and it charges very quickly. Some may think this unit is to small, but that is what I like about it. I bought it to take with me, to keep in the car, to travel with, etc. It fits that bill exactly. This is just great for surfing the web, jotting down notes or using as an mp3 player, etc. You probably don't want to use it as your main PC unless you just use a PC to do what I mentioned above, but I guess if you attach an external monitor, keyboard and mouse there is little reason why you can't.
I was originally going to wait a bit more before buying it, but the lure of possibly getting the 5800 mh battery instead of the 4400 convinced me to buy it now. It worked I got a 5800 mh battery that last about 8 hours SWEET!!
Now my boss is thinking about buying one, it's just a matter of time, because he's drooling.
The only down side is the nice blue cover shows finger prints, though they wipe off easily, and the mousepad is a little tricky for me but I have never liked mousepads so that's just me.
I may get another one soon, since my son is already eyeing this one. Oh the joys of being a pushover!
UPDATE: Boss just ordered, couldn't hold out any longer, he is weak. My friends husband, Oscar is interested in one, it's just a matter of time, these things sell themselves!
Great product! February 19, 2009

Just got this yesterday. Nice and light, built very sturdy . The screen is bright and sharp. Mouse pad pretty response and the keyboard feels good. The 6 cell battery will last over 6 hours with WIFI in use. I can't see anything wrong with this system. I would hv preferred to have the bluetooth and the SIM card slot, but those can be added through third party products. I was also interested in the ASUS, but did not like the keyboard and also heard that customer service was not so good.

I had the original aspire one 8.9" and I wasn't sure if I was going to upgrade or not. The screen size increase is definitely noticeable between the 2 and the 5800ma battery is a 3x upgrade over the 3 cell I had in my other one. I also have already upgraded the ram up to the 2gb maximum and this thing whizzes along. Definitely worth the upgrade to me, and I am glad I did it. I am also very confident that this one has the same board as the one with bluetooth, and I know what the bluetooth card model is, and hopefully can add internal bt with no problem. Overall a great netbook still very portable, but the bigger screen and battery are great added benefits.
