5.0 out of 5 stars some drawbacks, but great for the money, May 31, 2009

By	Paul McIntyre (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews

I ordered my 1000HA with chiclet keyboard about a week and a half ago, and I couldn't be happier so far. Though I was surprised to see just how small 10 inches actually is (I can't even imagine having a 7-inch screen!), the screen size is comfortable for me and I'm able to cut down on my scrolling using the zoom-out feature on the touchpad--though I can see this being a problem if you're farsighted. I also haven't noticed the keyboard as being "flimsy," as some other reviewers mentioned, and even with the smaller keyboard I'm still able to type with what seems like the same accuracy. I tested out the built-in microphone and webcam with two friends in other countries, and both said they were able to see and hear me better than with my previous USB model. The speakers are average but crisp--I wouldn't recommend trying to use this thing to fill a room with sound, but if it's just you sitting with it on your lap you should be fine.

As for the drawbacks, they're pretty limited but still worth mentioning. The click buttons, like previous reviewers have noted, are a little difficult to use at times. When you approach them from the front they move easily, but I still find myself trying to click from the top (like my last computer) and I have to stop and think about what I'm doing wrong. Additionally, programs seem a little slower to load if you're used to a high-powered desktop replacement, and don't even bother trying HQ video because it will be too choppy--though "regular" video is fine, and I can run Hulu, network program sites, Youtube, and my Slingbox on this model. Again, keep in mind that these things will probably slow down if you try to run something else that's heavy-duty in the middle, though.

In conclusion, I love my new eeePC. I did a lot of research before buying this model, and I'm happy that I found this sleek little netbook to replace my dying (and huge) laptop. I plan to upgrade the RAM to 2GB soon, but it has been running well even without it so far. At this price, how can you go wrong!

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect fit for my job., June 1, 2009

By	E. Kavet (NYC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10.1-Inch Pearl White Netbook - 7 Hour Battery Life (Personal Computers)

I purchased the Asus Eee 1000HA last month for the sole purpose of downloading files from my camera when I'm in the field. Many times the client wants to see the subject matter on a larger scale as opposed to looking at the back of the camera. The Asus is a perfect fit for my job. It's small and light weight. I was never a big fan of the Windows operating system. I was always a Mac user since the technology went from film to digital. My first preference was a macbook but the price tag was too high as compared to the new line of Asus netbooks on the market. Battery life, for the Asus, is about 5 hours on a full charge when the internet is not in use and depending how many programs you have running. The built in Wi Fi is a great feature when on the road and hooking up to local area hotspots,. The size takes a little getting used to as did the switch from Mac to PC. It was well worth the price. To this day I have not had one problem with the computer. It does everything as advertised. The operating manual states the battery life will give you a 7 hour charge but I find it closer to 4-5 hours. It's still a great machine. The 160 GB hard drive allows me to download hundreds of large size files.
Do yourself a favor when shopping for a netbook, give the Asus series of Netbooks a good looking over.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be better, June 25, 2009

By	Patrick L (Carlsbad, CA United States) - See all my reviews

Barely acceptable considering its price, but, at least the model that I bought, has several problem features (in order of increasing inconvenience):
(1) The keys are painted gray against a black background. Poor visibility unless you have intense lighting.
(2) There is no pilot lamp for Caps Lock. Thus to find out the status you need to test type and then maybe delete. Yes, you can download a third party free program to put an icon on the desktop, but you have to activate it every time you need it.
(3) No matter how hard I tried it was impossible to disable the touch pad and use an external mouse. Even when the touch pad's app said "Disabled" the darn thing was still active. I even removed the touch pad's app and still nothing. Thus, the pointer jumped messing up a document being composed if my thumb accidentally brushed against the pad.
(4) The System Restore feature does not work. I tried several Windows XP Restore points and every time I got the irritating message: "Your computer cannot be restored to SetPoint xyz"!
(5) The System Recovery using the hard disk partition says "Disable Boot Booster in BIOS" first. How can an ordinary user do that without specific instructions?

Regretted buying this PC and gave it away in frustration.
