"Almost, but not quite"

What I like:

Superb little notebook

What I don't like:

Dreadful battery life

Review:

The asus eee 900 almost had the lot, then for some unknown reason, certainly its not cheap so that cant be why, asus put a 400mah battery in the package, which is woefully inadiquate, given its a compact notebook, you should expect good battery life, in reality possibly because of the large screen, over the 700 series, and the xp operating system on mine, it struggles past the 45 min mark, so need regular recharges. I asked asus about the battery, there looking into the possibility of a bigger battery but for now i need to get and aftermarket one, at a whopping £45 plus, add this to the cost of the asus 900 and its seriosly ouclassed by a great many machines, whic is sad it was almost there, when plugged in its great, but i got it to run free, thats the point of it, so consider this if you wish to buy one, every thing else is good, as i said an almost great, almost, tho isnt good enough in this marketits very competitive xxxx
