Anyone spotted the ASUS Eee PC 1000HE in Hong Kong?
Considering buying a netbook over the next month or so - would appreciate any recommendations you might have other than the ASUS EEE PC.
Don't want to spend more than HK$ 3400...

I think engadget et al are reporting that the Acer ONE is selling better than Asus.
are you after a 10 inch or a 8.9 inch?
btw my friend has the samsung nc10 and is very happy with it.
pin - something basic and lightweight. Have seen some good reviews for the Samsung. Will wander down to 298 and see if I can find something in my budget.
Samsung NC10 would be my pick at the moment.
Good size keyboard however the mouse pad area is a little small.
Last time I checked only the XP (simplified Chinese) version was the only model available in HKG. I also think the NC10 could be outside you budget. Think it was about $4000.
Some considerations
1. Screen size
2. Battery life
3. Storage SSD or HDD
4. Operating system
5. Size & weight
Last time I was in a computer centre I saw vendors trying to sell off the old Asus 900 cheap. This model has issues with the battery discharge so I would avoid regardless of price.
The EEE PC is $349 on Amazon ( 404 Looking for Something? ). Way too much price difference here ..
mate just bought the acer one on new egg for US$249.
this was the linux version with 16gb ssd.
i have the acer one, and thing its a great piece of kit, use it travelling all the time.
nice and lightweight and very convenient.

check this site for the most competive prices, it will be far cheaper than fortress, broadway.
Available in WCC, both with English and Chinese XP (didn't inquire about Linux).Original Post Deleted
