Very slow and little storage Jul 27, 2010 Is very slow with 1 gb. if you have ipod, can not be used with asus web storage.
the first day the touch screen stopped working
It works ok but it is slow Jun 17, 2010 It seems generally fine, however it crashes occasionally. It is slow which has been reported elsewhere, hence somewhat frustrating. It really struggles with You Tube and Does not work well with Skype as of yet.
I love it May 30, 2010 Dont know why anyone would want to buy an iPAD when something like this is available.
Bough this for my daughter, it has its limitations, but it works great.

Great for my purposes May 14, 2010 I am a Kindle user and bought my ASUS M91MT (white - which is not listed now) to read Kindle books using Amazon's free reader software: The price is about the same as the Kindle DX, the LCD screen is *protected* when packed, I get WiFi and full color displays as well as the Kindle books.
I like the password protection.
The solid state hard drive is small at 32 GB but I like its ruggedness a lot. Battery life is not great but I have an external battery for any serious long term use away from power. (This works with my notebook too so it saves the a lot of money spent on a specific PC-dedicated battery.)
The multi-touch screen part is persnickety IMO. Other reviewers have complained about the problem with the screen reading palms - I join in that note. And I wish I could manipulate the touch part for the Kindle reader: I like to touch the left side of the screen to page forward.
A nice touch is the padded carrying sleeve.
I am tempted to give this little feller a five-star rating except for the touch screen. Perhaps part of my touch screen difficulties are due to my lack of experience. I will find out.
Great product. Recommended. Apr 25, 2010 I've had two Asus notebooks prior to purchasing this. One of them is around 5-6 years old and still working fine, albeit slow. The other one is around 1-2 years old and working very well. Because of the notebooks great performance, I decided on getting this netbook although it's much pricier than most netbooks.
It is not a perfect netbook. It has a lot of shortcomings but it does have some great features. I love the touch screen. You have to figure out how you should adapt your writing in such a way that you're not going to end up messing up your notes. It is not the most sensitive thing in the world but that's what I get for the price I paid. Remember, tablet PCs go for more than a thousand dollars. Also, you can't disable the multi-touch feature for all platforms. You can only disable it for windows journal and sticky notes (It's called IntelliWriting). It's weird why Asus did that.
Anyway, I also love the weight. It's very light and so convenient to carry around. Yes, the keyboard is tiny but what do you expect right? I have small hands so I can manage. You just have to adapt with the smallness of the netbook. At least it's only 2 lbs. That's definitely a plus for me. :)
The 1 GB RAM is something I had to upgrade. I tried it out for 2 weeks but it was a little bit hard to use a lot of programs at the same time. Upgrading to 2GB made it so much better.
Probably the worst feature of this netbook though is its 32 GB hard drive space. It is not enough. A lot of it is dedicated to Windows 7 and other necessary programs. I bought an 8GB SDHC (well, its a part of the package with the 2GB RAM upgrade) to expand the drive but it didn't make much difference. You're probably better off with a 32 GB SDHC.
I think I've said enough. All in all, this is a recommended netbook. :)
