vanDoug Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Looking to get one of these, mostly to watch MLB TV wherever I feel like it. Yeah I know, no life. I think the screen sizes go right down to 5". Battery life sounds like an obvious thing to look for. Besides that, anything else you folks would recommend considering? thanks d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 If that is what you are buying it for it would be okay. The processor on those is very weak. Also the keyboard is small so if you are a good typer on a normal size keyboard it would be an adjustment. I bought my wife a similar model in Radio Shack for Christmas. It is the same size but was a little cheaper and had a slightly bigger hard drive. So depending on what you intend to use it for, yes, they can be a good buy.

Papageorgio268 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 http://shopping.yahoo.com/articles/yshoppingarticles/221/att-to-offer-50-netbooks/ Saw this on the yahoo homepage and it looks worth checking it out. I was going to get my mom one for her birthday and prices were around $300 so these look like a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verde I am not sure what you have been told but size DOES matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the size of the hd that matters.. it's how you manage your files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
