Summary: Excellent Product
Comment: I brought 2 pcs for my sons. They are 10 and 8 year old. Both of them are very satisfied with this product especially my younger son. The battery life is amazing, almost 5 hours. On this kind of product, it's longer than what I expected.

Summary: Perfect.
Comment: ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel ATOM N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery) Fine Ebony
I wanted a compact ultra-mobile laptop with great battery life and decent enough power to run several programs at once and that is exactly what I got.
My battery life is usually around 5.5+ hours with heavy use which is more than I could've asked for. (Make sure you condition your battery)
Its extremly easy to upgrade this laptop. I have installed 2gb of ddr2 ram and I am thinking about upgrading my hd to a 320 or 500 gb.
This is a great buy that you will not regret.

Summary: An awesome netbook
Comment: This Asus netbook has lived up to its reviews. It has enough speed and drive space for my net surfing and applications needs. It travels well due to its light weight and the battery truly lasts an entire days' worth of work. I have gotten 6 hours+ from one charge; of course, during that time I turn off the wireless when I don't need it. I like the fact it's packed with Windows XP: I have older applications I need to run and I'm sure they will not run under Vista. I'm glad I decided to buy this netbook and not another full size laptop. I LOVE IT!

Summary: This is such a great PC!
Comment: I recently purchased the ASUS 1000HA because I needed a portable computer to do on-the-fly work for a hospital I work at, and for light web surfing. I get called at random times when I'm off work to do this and that so I needed a laptop that wasn't a burden to carry around, but was also up the task of running the software I use for work.
I was skeptical about a 10" screen, but I took a chance on it and after seeing it in person it is fantastic. It's just the right size. It's not too small where you would have trouble reading it, but it's big enough so that screen doesn't look all jumbled up.
The keyboard seems great so far. It's just a little smaller than a regular laptop keyboard. The keys aren't "clicky" like some keyboards can be. That drives me crazy. The different power modes are great to get the most of out the battery. I can get a good 5+ hours in power saving mode with the screen brightness turned down to 50%. The multi-gesture track pad is so great. If you've used a mac then you know what I'm talking about. All in all this is a great system.
I do think you should spring for the 2gb ram upgrade from OCZ on Amazon. I could have several tabs open in Firefox and try to do other things and have a little stutter to the system, but the ram upgrade solved that. I plan on getting a slim USB-powered portable DVD-burner to go with it. I haven't had a need for the CD/DVD drive yet, but I'd like to have it just in case.

Summary: I give 4.5 stars for this notebook. Here is why...
Comment: I finally decided to write a review for this nice notebook. I know that there are a lot of people were trying to write a review without putting their hands on this product. So it was hard for me to decide if I need it or not. But I decided to get it. Now after owning it for approx. 3 weeks I can say what I think and how I rate this notebook.
Here is my pros vs. cons list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROS:
1.Decent size - 10" screen is better (IMHO) then 8.9" screen.
2.Powerful enough (1 GB Ram and 160 GB HD) for daily operations (web surfing, video chat, email, some games, watching online movies).
3. Light weight
4. Build quality is great.
5. Build in 1.3 MP camera
6. Decent keyboard size
7. Comes with sleeve case in the box (you don't need to buy one).
8 Wi-Fi works great. In previous reviews I saw bad comments on Wi-Fi. It finds and connects just as fast as my other Dell and Lenovo notebooks.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONS:
1. Touch pad buttons are too stiff - need to push really hard to use them
2. Hard to keep it clean (outside) - there are always fingerprints on the external cover. It is mirror like and I have to wipe it every time I put my hands on it.
3. Build-in software to update drivers and bios are not user friendly. It will show you all of Asus bios releases and you need to make sure that you are using correct (latest) bios version. If you choose wrong version from the list, computer will crash during reboot.
BTW if you rung upgrade, you dont need to to graduate bios upgrade. Just select last version from the list.
4. Battery life - before upgrading bios my battery meter was showing between 6 and 7 hours of life. Now after upgrade I see only 3 hours. Need to check with support why it happened.
5. There is no CD-rom drive. Asus provides CD-Rom software with purchase, but there is no way of using it. You need to buy it as an accessory.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I think 4.5 stars is a fair rating for this product. I'm sure that later on for future EEE models there will be modifications and upgrades done to fix/enhance the product.
