Sony VAIO VPC-W111XX/P 10.1-Inch Pink Netbook - 2.5+ Hour Battery Life
this netbook is definitely something we purchased for plenty of reasons. one was cause its a Sony. Secondly it works well over wireless with the playstation and the screen size and resolution is far superior than other netbooks on the market.

it’s definitely more expensive than the other netbooks but its definitely worth it!!!

Samsung N130-13P 10.1-Inch Pink Netbook - Up to 6.2 Hours of Battery Life Review

Samsung N130-13P 10.1-Inch Pink Netbook - Up to 6.2 Hours of Battery Life
I bought this for my nieces who are 7 and 9 and they love it. Of course the pink color helps. They even had fun setting it up, giving it a name (Lilly) etc.
The internet works well and is easy to set up. Programs can be added by downloading or transfering the install files to a usb flash drive. It is lightweight and has a good battery life. There is a program to adapt screen resolution for programs that need it. Webkinz didnt work initially but then we found a link to an adapted version and it works great! The kids were just searching the web the other day for a paper on MLK. It is so portable they use it in the kitchen at home (under supervision while mom and dad are cooking) or they bring it to grandma’s house. It is quiet and the underside only gets a little warm. Overall a fantastic purchase for under [...] bucks. The only criticism I have is that the Samsung website is a little light on support and we couldn’t figure out how to activate the one year free of microsoft office. I set up a free message board on quicktopic so we can keep in touch easily as well as a private family video account on you tube so they can watch baby videos and other events we have filmed over the years.

Samsung GO N310-13GO 10.1-Inch Sunset Orange Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life Review

Samsung GO N310-13GO 10.1-Inch Sunset Orange Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life
I’ve had the GO for about a month now and couldn’t be more pleased with it. It does what I want and expect it to do AND it’s small enough I can carry it to work in my lunch box if I want.
After clearing out or cleaning up some of the minimal pre-loaded software and downloading a couple of free-ware programs to help keep things in order, it has run flawlessly. At work, I wake it up, it powers up in just a few seconds, instantly recognizes the wireless connection and patiently waits for me to do whatever. Have not had any issues with the smaller keyboard, navigation (although a wireless mouse would probably make it easier for some folks), or the display. Battery life has been phenomenol. Right out of the box I tried to run the battery all the way down but after 2 days still over 20% remaining. Now at the end of the day I usually still have over 80% remaining.
I’m not going to hang a lot of accessories on this netbook because I want it to remain portable to the max. I am however thinking of getting a Bluetooth GPS unit for it to use on trips and such. Right now, for the programs I want installed (my planner, financial, word processing, and a couple of specialized programs), the stock memory is more than enough. I use a USB thumbdrive to transfer stuff to another computer if I need to.
So, overall a great little machine in my opinion. Looks good, solidly built from what I can tell, and it does what it is supposed to do.
I will also add that Amazon has been great through the whole process - ordering, shipping, tracking, etc, so thanks to them.

ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1201N-PU17-SL 12.1-Inch Silver Netbook - 5 Hours of Battery Life Review

ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1201N-PU17-SL 12.1-Inch Silver Netbook - 5 Hours of Battery Life
I purchased this for my wife to use at home to check e-mail, connect to her office and watch Craig’s List.

It’s all as advertised. The very nearly full-size keyboard was the selling point. With the small ASUS netbook I own, typing is a two finger exercise due to the small keyboard. That’s OK for the uses I had such as a repository for service manuals and instructions.

Acer AO532h-2964 10.1-Inch Matrix Silver Netbook - Up to 10 Hours of Battery Life Review

Acer AO532h-2964 10.1-Inch Matrix Silver Netbook - Up to 10 Hours of Battery Life
This netbook just amazes me. Compared to Asus and Samsung netbooks that I have owned it is the clear winner based on the fact that I am carrying it with me 24/7, literally putting it next to the bed when I get in. Added the extra ram (now at 2gb) and upgraded to Windows Home Premium. The unit is lightening fast and the keyboard is easy to adapt to. At under 3 pounds it is almost unnoticeable when carrying all day in my backpack, with my verizon myhotspot wifi device I can whip out the book and connect easily and conveniently anywhere.
