Slashgear reviews Asus Eee PC 1000HA and writes: With no integrated 3G WWAN, no Bluetooth, no particularly stand-out functionality and a reasonably bland design, the ASUS Eee PC 1000HA is never going to be a huge statement piece. However it succeeds because, for most people, that’s not what a netbook needs to be.

For $429.99 you’re getting a capable internet and messaging machine that’s durable, reliable and straightforward to use, together with enough battery life to demand, useage dependent, only one lunchtime recharge to get you through the work day. Compared with so-called “luxury” or feature netbooks, such as ASUS’ own S101 or N10, the 1000HA makes a far more convincing case.

Laptopmag.com has a Samsung NC10 review and writes: The Samsung NC10 has joined the ranks of 10-inch netbooks—including the Eee PC 1000H, MSI Wind, and Lenovo IdeaPad S10—and it beats them all. The $499 NC10 may have the same cookie-cutter specs as its competitors, including a 1.6-GHz Intel Atom processor, 1GB of RAM, and Windows XP, but its spacious, well-positioned keyboard and more than 6 hours of battery life make this system our favorite 10-inch netbook yet.

Until now, no other netbook has been able to match the 10-inch MSI Wind’s endurance, strong performance, and spacious keyboard. Samsung’s NC10 is the only product that provides comparable—and even improved—features for a lower price. Its comfortable, well-positioned keyboard, speedy and spacious hard drive, and more than 6 hours of endurance make the $499 Samsung NC10 the most well-rounded 10-inch netbook on the market. While the $549 MSI Wind (with a six-cell battery) is an excellent choice, it will cost you $50 more. Those willing to sacrifice some touchpad room will find the Samsung NC10 to be a great mobile companion.

During the review among the pros of Samsung NC10 the following were mentioned

• Roomy keyboard
• Very long battery life
• Speedy and relatively large hard drive
• Good speakers for a netbook
• Quality webcam

Samsung NC10 cons are few

• Small touchpad
• Design not as chic as some competitors (yeah, look at Asus Eee PC)

T3 presents a comparison between three netbooks: Eee PC 901, Acer Aspire One and Medion Akoya.  No idea why the latter was chosen.

ASUS Eee PC 901

• Pros: The look, the decent battery.
• Cons: The keyboard, the laggy trackpad, the screen.
• Verdict: A Fisher Price style computer for adults and children alike.

Acer Aspire One

• Pros: The styling, the colors, the keyboard.
• Cons: Rubbish battery life.
• Verdict: At this price, the best on offer right now.

Medion Akoya

• Pros: The comfy keyboard, the bright screen.
• Cons: The battery, the bland design.
• Verdict: A decent mini-lappy for kicking back on the sofa.

Seems like T3 guys like Medion Akoya more. How else can you explain this saying: The Medion was a bit like getting into a hot bath after spending a day of being flagellated and humiliated?

Acer Aspire One is one of the best choices in the market. Being released only during the summer of 2008 Aspire One already almost oversold Asus Eee PC which was launched almost one year earlier. If you are looking for a netbook, Acer Aspire One should probably be your first choice.
