Review:

I have had my Aspire One for a month now and I am very pleased with it. It's a nice looking bit of kit, I have the blue version, and everybody seems to want one the minute they see it. It boots up very quickly and is usually up and ready to use in about 30 seconds or so. Connection to the net via a G3 dongle is quick and easy and, because the Aspire is so portable, going online in my local coffee shop is a breeze. The touchpad is a touch small however and the left and right click buttons are set to either side which is a bit odd so it takes a bit of getting used to. The only real let down is the battery life. So far i have only managed to get 2hrs 5 mins out of a full charge so carrying around the charger and cable is a must unless you buy a spare battery. Overall though it's a nice machine and, unless you want to spend hours on the web at a time, will be adequate for most uses when you are on the move.
