Asus Eee PC 1000HE review
The attractive, 10-inch Eee PC 1000HE is the best netbook yet for frequent travellers, thanks to the most impressive battery life we've seen on any laptop. Benefiting from an excellent keyboard, the 1000HE is also a commendable performer, although integrated 3G would have made it even better Read more

Eee PC 1008HA Seashell review
Such is the beauty of the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell that it makes other netbooks look like they were cobbled together by blind goat herders. One of the thinnest and lightest netbooks on the market, it also boasts a truly excellent keyboard. We wish the battery was user-replaceable though Read more

Eee PC 1005HA Seashell review
Its performance is typical of a netbook, but Asus has found other ways to make the Eee PC 1005HA Seashell stand out from the crowd. While the 1005HA sports a good keyboard and an appealing design, the real star of the show is its fantastic battery life Read more

Acer Aspire Timeline 1810T review
The 11.6-inch Aspire Timeline 1810T is a great alternative to a netbook, offering the same degree of portability with an added smattering of comfort. Its battery life isn't exceptional, but the 1810T is faster than most netbooks and offers a splendid keyboard that's remarkably easy to type on Read more

Asus U1 review
It's tiny, it's shiny, it's got leather, it's got Vista -- what's not to love? The Asus U1 offers Core Duo performance in a petite package, along with a lovely 11-inch screen, an insignificant 1kg weight and the brand-new Windows OS. Graphics aren't a speciality though, and it is pricey Read more

Advent 4211 review
The Advent 4211 is a less-expensive, re-badged alternative to the MSI Wind. It has the same core specification, so any differences between the two are merely cosmetic. If you want to jump on the netbook bandwagon, this is a fantastic starting point Read more

Eee PC 1000 review
You can't go a day without seeing another Eee. This time, the 10.2-inch Eee PC 1000 appears on the mini laptop scene and it's a fabulous machine. It precariously straddles the line between netbook and ultraportable, but it's well equipped, well designed and great for those who need a laptop on the move Read more

Nokia Booklet 3G review
Despite Nokia arriving at the netbook shindig a few years late, the 10.1-inch Booklet 3G is an impressive machine. Its performance is par for the netbook course, but its high-res screen, built-in 3G modem and excellent battery life make it a tempting, if expensive, proposition Read more

Eee PC 1005P review
The Eee PC 1005P is almost identical to the Eee PC 1005PE, but has a smaller hard drive and costs slightly less. Its next-generation Intel Atom N450 CPU doesn't provide a big performance improvement over its netbook predecessors, but its battery life is corking and it looks good too Read more
