When Asus released its Eee PC, praise was almost universal. People loved the device's size, low price, and the fact it came with Linux appealed to many geeks. Consequently, the device sold rather well, and was a hit for Asus. However, the device had two major shortcomings: its small screen (7" 800x480), and its relatively short battery life. Asus took the critcism to heart, and came up with the Asus Eee PC 900, which has a 9" 1024x600 screen. So, what's the verdict?

I'm also really waiting for such device with a Trackpoint...yes, touchpad vs. trackpoint comes down to personal preference, but:
a) even when ones preference is a touchpad, it's harder to use the smaller it gets...which brings us to point
b) it's perfectly suited for such size-constrained machines
Here's hoping Lenovo will do something about it...
