CNET Asia Review
Very good
The good: Upscale brushed-metal design outshines other Netbooks; almost as slim as the MacBook Air. 7.9
out of 10View score
The bad: More expensive than similar Netbook configurations; hard-to-use, tiny keyboard.
The bottom line: ASUS packs the same basic components found in other Netbooks into a stylish, slim chassis for a modest premium in price, but some unfortunate keyboard-layout compromises make the S101 harder to use than it should be.

Excellent Laptop

Pros: Superlight, great battery life, good screen
Cons: hard disk is too small
Opinion:
Good looking, small and light machine with a long-lasting battery (5 hours). Doesn't have independent pg-up/pg-dn keys but the Multi-touch trackpad provides those functions.
Only gripe is the less than sufficient hard-drive - just 16GB, though it comes with a 16GB SD card and 30GB online storage. Makes you think about what you want to keep on the computer, and forces you to carry an external hard drive with you, which kind of negates the weight advantage.
As for the Atom processor, since i dont do any gaming on my computer anymore, and have never needed to run any advanced mathematical models, am wondering why bought large, heavy laptops with ripsnorting processors all these years.
Adding in the expressgate feature would have made it even better.
