The MacBook Air SSD just dropped in price $500. Look at it again.

Just read at eee-pc.de that the asus eee 903 was renamed to 900A, possibly it will be an eee 900 with atom processor. Also, maybe a better looking 901..

If the Dell release is about a month away, I think I’m going to hold off a little longer before deciding.

I was leaning towards a larger Asus/MSI 10-inch model, but if Dell has a better keyboard on the 8.9-inch then I think the portability factor would trump the other netbooks.

I would rather have a nice looking device then a bloated scientific calculator.

[...] Magazine, it takes a lot to stand out in the netbook market right now. Yesterday I went through my own thoughts on the top netbook devices and had to leave out the Dell E, Gigabyte M912X and ECS G10L. In the last 24-hours we’ve had [...]

Oooh, play.com have more Aspire One’s now.
There’s a variety of configs available that were not there the other day.

Linux and XP with variety of RAM and HD/SSD combos.
Not the one I’d like (yet) though, 1Gb RAM and 8GB SSD with Linux.

Agree with your choices, but I would choose linux instead. That way I would have extra 8GB in case of the eee 901 for the same price and a better overall OS.

I agree with Chippy. Acer’s design offers a good sized keyboard while still being compact. Now if HP could add a couple more inches on their screen and a good processor to increase battery life and reduce heat, then that would be an awesome machine…

The biggest thing is obviously availablility. Even when these laptops have supposivly launched there is a delay. I first thought that I would only have to wait till June to make a decision but since none of them are even available to buy yet it seems like the wait is going to be much longer.

The weight is a little big 1.2K, but isn’t it the better choise today?
