What we think: The Eee PC is stonking value for money, but its small size and cramped keyboard make it occasionally difficult to use

| Review summary | There's no two ways about it -- the Asus Eee PC 701 is a great laptop. It's affordable, sexy and highly portable. If you're looking for a cheap second PC that can fit into a small bag, then there are few better options Read full review |
With 3G, Wi-Fi, good performance and extremely long battery life, plus being small and beautifully formed, the TZ21WN is Sony's best ultraportable yet, although it doesn't come cheap Read full review |
The S6F is an almost-perfect combination of style and substance. Its distinctive leather finish, small form factor and long battery life make it a joy to take on the road, and its powerful components allow it to keep up with the fastest of PCs. It's also tremendous value for money Read full review |
The D420's reliable performance, battery life and ability to get online at broadband speeds, with or without a Wi-Fi hotspot, make it one of the best ultra-portable laptops we've ever seen Read full review |

The IdeaPad S10 gets the price and features right, but falls behind on battery life
