I am logging in for the first time on my new dell mini inspiron. So far it is great. The screen is lovely, the touch is fabulous and the webcam is good too. I can't believe it. Perfect! Price RM999.
This is the third netbook I have, the second is a lenovo netbook. The keyboard was uneven, kept missing certain letters when typing, the sound was too soft and the webcam was not usable at all. Couldn't use it for skype. I bought this last year for RM1,300.
The first netbook I had was an asus 7 inch. That was fun when it was released a few years ago. The sound was great and I could skype although there was no webcam. The keys were not great though, very stiff and couldn't type the letter d without intentionally pressing it. And the space tab was worse, giving me thumb fatigue. It was about RM800.
Why this obsession with netbooks? Well, I love being mobile and went on a quest to search for something I could work on effectively and at the same time light enough to lug around without hurting my back. So you have a lower back problem like I do, dell mini inspiron is the one. Look no further.
I am glad that with a good touchpad I am truly mobile without having to bring a mouse along.

netbook
I love the netbook. when asus first came up with asus eepc 701 i couldn't believe it. it's just so portable. It's main function is internet connectivity. I tend to see it as a handphone that allows you to access the internet and respond to emails. It is truly more like a handphone than a notebook eventhough it may be shaped like a notebook. Certainly the price is akin to a mobilephone. I think it is useful to have one around the house. I keep one in my bag that i carry around and up to my bedroom. It's for accessing the internet in bed. Because it is so light, I surf the web like reading a book in bed. It's really nice.
I bought mine before the webcam comes with it. So I don't have the webcam. It would be nice to have a netbook with webcam. The built in skype is also excellent and I can messenger or call my friends. I think it is worth having a netbook like a telephone at home and it can work like a video phone.
I am hoping the newer netbooks would squeese in a dvd player. It is mainly for those times when you are travelling or moving around and there is no wi fi. At least one can view a movie then. And I am ready to upgrade to a new netbook with webcam and a dvd player. no need to add any other features like bigger ram or memory. keep the price low within the mobile phone range.
