But I do, and if the touchpad is not centered of the space key which would shift its position to the left due to the additional "page up" and "page down" key column, I will hit the touchpad often with my right palm, which will reposition the cursor to god-knows-where. So, it's a deal-breaker for me as well, if the touchpad is not set to center of the space key, but center of the entire keyboard.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stone Chen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 11th 2009 9:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer Timeline hands-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Come on guys you could have at least told us what graphics system it is using.

I'm hoping the 13.3" has the "discrete" (aka integrated Nvidia/AMD) option. The 14" is hugely tempting though, it weighs less than my M1330 does with a 9-cell, still gets better battery life and has a better graphics system. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Skrying]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 8th 2009 12:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer Timeline hands-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm sorry Acer, but I think I like Sony's designs better.

In the past, people said it was because of the HD under the right palmrest that wouldn't accomodate the touchpad on top of it but come on, lame explanation!<br><br>Anyway, the ASUS Eee PC 1008HA was beautiful, too, EXCEPT for the touchpad... And I don't get it, it's centered in the entire Eee PC range BUT the "high-style" 1008HA. I want a GOOD LOOKING MACHINE! That could do its job well and weight close to nothing on my hand luggage.<br><br>I've been waiting for a "close to perfection" netbook/notebook for quite some time. I was an Eee PC 701 early adopter (and one of the early to become unhappy about its limitations, AKA small screen, huge display bezel, short battery life, etc, etc). Sorry but it took too much time for the market to grow more mature and I ended up with a MacBook Air. Incredible piece of hardware! Not intended for the heaviest tasks but then again, it's lighter than most netbooks and sturdier, too.<br><br>Now if I had something like this Aspire Timeline before, maybe the "Air" would be just for breath... And my pocket would be a little fatter, too...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[vitorjbr1980]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 9th 2009 3:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer Timeline hands-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/07/acer-timeline-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Does anyone know when it goes on sale?
