Packard Bell easynote XS video review

If you want a no-frills, good value second PC for the home, car or holiday, the Packard Bell Easynote XS could be for you. This video review should help you choose as it shows the device, its ports, the keyboard and a few applications. Its certainly good value for money if you can get hold of one in either Holland or the UK. Its also due to be launched in other areas and will appear in a slightly different finish in the US and Asia as the Everex CE.

The main issues with the device are the tiny mouse pad, the less-than-attractive style and the competition it will get from the ASUS Eee PC but it’s got a nice bright screen, a good keyboard and up to 4 hours battery life. (2.5 hours Wifi-on working life.) I’ve written more about the device here in my first impressions article.

The YouTube video below is also available in a higher quality version on Blip.tv (WMV 768bps) and more specifications, the gallery and news/review links can be found through the Easynote XS product page.
