I had such a great experience with an Acer Aspire One netbook that I though I would upgrade to a slimmer netbook. But after bringing it home last night I found out that there are issues with it going to a black screen when poweing on OR hibernating... <br />There are some clunky workarounds that work for some but it's not a good choice for Windows 7 beta or RC yet. If you're planning on a netbook for Windows 7 this isn't it yet. Hope they update the bios at some point. <br />That being said it's a nicely built unit and feels solidly constructed with a nice keyboard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-13559206550854187862009-05-25T15:11:20.261-07:002009-05-25T15:11:20.261-07:00Novice user here excited about the 1008HA because ...Novice user here excited about the 1008HA because of the weight.

UK pricing of Asus netbooks seems extremely biased, especially when compared to the US.<br /><br />My feeling in general is that it'd be best to wait for the 1005ha, which although *slightly* chunkier will allow for user user replacable batteries. I don't know about anybody else, but I think I'd find a backup battery a boon now that I'm used to the exceptional battery life of my 1000HE!Netbook Newsroomhttp://netbooknewsroom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-59604991301473444132009-05-15T14:13:00.000-07:002009-05-15T14:13:00.000-07:00The best looking netbook so far, especially the bl...The best looking netbook so far, especially the black version.

If you travel a lot or commute by public transport every day and have a netbook at all times, you will feel the difference between 3.2 and 2.4 pounds (less than 1.1kg). I am sure it can weight less than 1 kg using SSD, too bad they don't offer it by default.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-6185561666292787402009-05-15T06:12:00.000-07:002009-05-15T06:12:00.000-07:00http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/15/asus-eee-pc-100...http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/15/asus-eee-pc-1005ha-m-and-1005ha-h-steal-seashells-sublimity/#continuedAndynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-66693210262666301102009-05-14T19:06:00.000-07:002009-05-14T19:06:00.000-07:00Is this worth the price for a few millimeters of t...Is this worth the price for a few millimeters of thinness?

I will probably get something similar when windows 7 comes out and either upgrade it with an ssd or get it preconfigured. Just add an ssd, nvidia ion along with windows 7 (media centre included) and its the dream netbook for me.<br /><br />PS @ Afront thats mainly tax so we can have a free health care system etc<br /><br />PSS shipping @ play.com in a few days - thats not going to be in stock for long LOLAndynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-64582325060577954262009-05-14T12:40:00.000-07:002009-05-14T12:40:00.000-07:00where the hell is the T91where the hell is the T91Vijayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06193083686500834320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-41358430161537728872009-05-14T11:39:00.000-07:002009-05-14T11:39:00.000-07:00battery life should be 6 hrs.
