"Perfect for me"
What I like:
Size and more importantly Weight (or lack of!) when travelling over my usual IBM T30!
What I don't like:
Initial battery supplied (but see below).
Review:
5800 battery obtained under Asus Replacement Scheme is excellent. 3.5 hrs with BBC 24 Hr News running in pop up window, surfing at same time and powering external travel speakers (http://tinyurl.com/5roafp - Excellent match and sound quality for the White 900). Xandros does what I want and is a pleasant change from XP. Overall I just love this machine :)

Acer Aspire One D250 Android
Pretty average netbook, and the Android OS is more of a hindrance than a help
Samsung R520
Not a bad budget laptop, but the bigger R720 is a much better option if portability isn't a prime concern
