5.0 out of 5 stars excellent for what it is, December 2, 2008

By	Patricia Centofanti (Bridgewater, NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

i am writing this review from this machine, using a wireless connection while i am on the go. it's exactly what it was meant to do. it's not for heavy computing of course, but for email, web browsing, etc, it's perfect. SO portable, comes with a little sleeve, the color is less cotton candy than i expected so i was pleasantly surprised. (i chose pink because at the time it seemed to be the one in stock at best price). keyboard slightly smaller than normal one so takes minor adjustment. no problems picking up internet, wireless and my home dsl wired connection. i haven't yet tried any spreadsheets or documents but will do. i loaded a lot of photos, some mp3's and some videos and no problem with anything. the sd card reader is also handy because i can pull the card from my cell phone or camera on the run.
if you are looking for exactly this, internet, email and basic computing on the run without having some tiny thing in the palm of your hand, but not schlepping around a heavy notebook--this is perfect for you!!! it's inexpensive and decent quality. happy with battery life so far too.
OH almost forgot, the webcam is a nice little bonus too. i'm always snapping pics with camera/phone and here's another easy way to take pics and wirelessly upload to share the moment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little laptop!, December 2, 2008

By	Maggie113 (Northern CA, USA) - See all my reviews

I received my Acer Aspire One just about a week ago, and I'm hooked!

PROS: It really is amazing how small it is. I can fit it into my purse and I forget it's there. The battery life is very convenient (5.5 hours, so I don't have to carry cables around), and the video quality is very good. I have streamed TV episodes and watched iTunes videos, and it works great. Also, there is so much space on the hard drive that I can fill it up with music and movies with no problem. The built-in camera and mic work well with Skype. Also, just as a side note, as a woman, I am glad to finally have a feminine looking piece of electronics. The pink color is subdued and not at all inappropriate for professional use. There are other colors, though: black, brown, white, and blue.

CONS: The keyboard is quite small, so you need to have small hands. You can get used to it, though. With just a little practice, I am already typing away very quickly with only a few errors. The mouse buttons are placed on the side and are inconvenient, so I just use tapping and that takes care of that problem. The case that came with it doesn't afford much protection, but there are a few options online that can fit this model.

Overall, it is a great choice for a second laptop, and it lives up to the hype. You can't get any more mobile and affordable than this with this kind of quality and capacity. I am very happy with this purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars perfect for me, December 8, 2008

By	Pollyanna Hsu "Polly" (Baton rouge, LA USA) - See all my reviews

Got mine last Friday as a second laptop. Use it for 2 days, and everything is fine.

This cute little pink netbook is perfect for me.
Checking Emails, MSN, youtube, movie and music, some simple word processing( writing my final project report)...
The speaker is clear and load enough,keys are nearly full size, VGA camera works fine, as light as many of my textbooks, and even forget that it was in my purse when I was carrying it.

People may complain the screen is way too small, but I think it is enough for the aforementioned simple tasks.

The speed for web is a little bit slow, it is still bearable for me.

Never try to open a file on your USB drive directly, it took me forever to open it. The best way is to transfer to the hard drive and then open it...I don't know why

The most important thing is that it is the cutest and most lovely computer I have ever seen, and just for less then [...]
