Well done with the video. I could tell you were nervous, but you still did quite well.

Would've liked to have seen the screen/keyboard/touchpad in action a little bit, though.

How is the wifi on yours? Is there any noise at all coming from it?

Thanks for the review!

Very good points! the wifi is super quiet. The cooling fan on this is quiet also. Someone even reviewed the NC10 thinking it didn't have a cooling fan which is quite comical. That's how quiet it is!

Hi, Very Nice job with the review. Plus your really cute:)

I am reading a lot on the Samsung NC10 about the keyboard sprayed with nano silver particles and that it may be toxic and bad for your health. I really like the NC10 and actually have ordered one but now I am deeply concerned about this issue.

Do you have any information on this that the the keyboard is 100% safe and there won't be a massive recall in the future? Thanks, Kevin

My husband is a Chem Biologist, and he says there has yet to be proof that it would do harm. You just typing on it shouldn't do you any harm. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19080440?ordinalpos=5&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum This article I just posted was published just in July. Nano Silver is simply a tiny particle coating of "silver". It has natural antimicrobial properties. My husband claims that we are surrounded by nano particles every day that do the same thing/have similar effect. Not to mention when studies are done, they always overexpose with whatever they're studying. Too much exposure to anything can be harmful. I'll prod him some more about this product and have him read more studies pertaining to the situation, though.

Great Review. You raised some good points. Portability is key and if you're happy to carry a netbook you'll have a greater computer experience with the bigger keyboard and bigger screen. The laptops with 2 hour battery life, extra weight have been a chore to carry around. Also with more wifi around in most areas the netbook is a really obvious evolution to our online experience. The price is also inviting. Intel have posted profit loss for last year and the evolution of netbooks is one of the factors. Check out the new sony portable called the Sony VAIO VGN-P530H/R Lifestyle PC . Very different and lighter than even this netbook. Very pricey though - much more upmarket. Youtube have plenty of videos on it and amazon have a product overview of it. I will stick with my white nc10 though. I fully agree about the white is the best colour, white keys and matt finish with no glossy fingerprints over it.

I don't think it's true about the finish being different on the blue and black. As far as I know, all variants (including Black and Blue) have a matte finish that do not attract fingerprints.

Not to mention I've personally seen the other colors.. Yes they are glossed... =)

Glossy yes and what was with the guy in the video for the Blue wearing gloves. I was hoping that they wouldn't be finger print magnets and wanted to stay away from a white, just not to mistaken for an Apple snob.
