I paid $305 for an Acer Aspire One with 6 cell battery, 1gb ram, 160gb hard drive, and fantastic build quality.Is that one inch of screen really worth an extra $200? Hell no!
The NC10 is my favorite netbook, but the price is far too high. I'd recommend the Acer Aspire One, (model: AOA150-1447.)
That one inch of screen real estate (actually 1.3") really DOES make the difference (15% larger if my math is correct). I have used both and the difference is night and day. It seems Acer realized this also and that's why they are ditching the 9" screens for 10" on their new models. ASUS also realized this late last year...
While its tablet world topping pixel density, Tegra 2 silicon, and fresh to death OS certainly sound awesome, we had to get our grubby mitts on one to see if it's as good as its spec sheet would have us believe.
