Asus 7" laptop

I received this computer about 4 days ago. I am an assistive technology specialist, and I see potential for use by students who have physical difficulty with writing. I issue laptops and portable word processors to students and was intrigued by this mini laptop. I'm not so worried about internet connection--but was able to get it working with my network with little effort. Everything I needed was preinstalled. Video from my 'flip video' camcorder(very cool and super simple to use device) plays well , as do powerpoint shows. The laptop has potential to be a good tool for some students for 'video modeling' (a teaching technique for students having more severe disabilities). I liked the laptop so much I ordered the 8gb one. I have plans to install XP (but I see Asus makes one with xp preinstalled now. That's what I get for not waiting.) Still, I am very happy with my purchase.

great for internet use

This little thing is really good for someone who wants it just for surfing the internet or anything like that. Although I would highly recommend getting one of those notebook wireless mouses or whatever because the touch pa is reallly annoying. the screen is really small too but it works. It has some problem with playing videos like from youtbe or something and i tried putting music on here in the music manager but it doesnt play very well. and i havent quite figured out how to download stuff like onto here yet...if you can?? eh. anyways overall its a very good machine.
oh, and it gets hot very fast and the battery life sucks so i wouldnt take it anywhere
and i'd leave it plugged up at all times 0.o

Wow so much in such a little package

Okay, this is it, a laptop/notebook the size of a good book. Those big laptops broke my back. This little thing is great to tote around to school and work and back home.

Pluses:

Internet connectivity is easy and fast.
Love the simple games on it (I'm addicted)
Size is wonderful (who says size is everything)

Minuses:

I baught the 2Gb (probably should have gone with 4 or 8Gb but for the price it works for me. I just need to be creative in what programs I download and install. (I also baught extra 16Gb for storage and that works great for music and work stuff.)

The only thing I don't like about the keyboard is the shift key on the right hand side and backspace key are too small and I keep missing them. Otherwise the keyboard is great and easy to use. Maybe I should stop playing games and practice my keyboard skills.

Wonderful idea and many uses

I used amazon warehouse and got this as a refurb. It came in a timely manner and had all the information from manuals to several disks with it packaged nicely. Great price on refurb as well
I was surprised on how well i adapted to it and how it did what i wanted it to do . I was not expecting a full featured system and was pleased with how well it did the internet and how fast it found the wi fi connections in various places. While i in no way could of handled a fancy phone this was perfect for what it does. Very pleased with my Asus Eee Pc 2 g surf and very glad i tried a refurb . Thanks amazon great product and a great price !
