Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: Cheap.
Cons: Keypad & touchpad + usb port.
Opinion:
Got S10 in May when my labtop finally died. For my personal opinion, I dislike the keypad alot esp the [Fn] & ctrl button arrangement. The touchpad is always giving off static charges making my finger very uncomfortable. Also a lack of additional usb port (2 ports only).

At the PC Show, I got something else for my bro & it's so much better (lighter & hassle free) than S10. If I hadn't had S10 set up w/ my stuffs I would change it.

But this is a really affordable average netbook. Free upgrade ram, one mouse & notebook sleeve... Plus 4gb thumbdrive. Package attractive. I think the price @ the show should be SGD649 instead. I went 1st day of the show at the level 3 Lenovo booth.

Do look around & try the keypads & touchpad for ur ideal netbook.

This is an excellent netbook except for few negligible cons like its awkwardly placed ctrl key, 6-cell battery poping out. Does all the borwsing realated stuff exceptionally well.

One of the best netbooks I've seen

Feb 27, 2009

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Great performance for a small processor. One-key rescue is really helpful. Upgrading is a breeze.
Cons: Hate the CTRL button being in the middle rather than the end needs getting use to that.
Opinion:
This netbook is so easy to use. The webcam and mic are excellent. Its nice that all indicator lights are blue. I'm a fan of blue lights and all of them are easily recodnized. Would have been nice if there was a esata port or an extra usb port making it 3 ports. The keyboard needs some getting use to otherwise this is a awesome netbook.

Very Good (9 out of 10)

Dec 25, 2008

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Value for Money, PCI ExpressCard & One Key Recovery
Cons: Slightly Heavy with a 6-cell battery
Opinion:
I love the sturdy built and reasonably small footprint which makes it easier for putting into my backpack. I have loaded tonnes of softwares and files and that have not slowed down the netbook. Although it is not bundled, I have managed to install and use the VeriFace logon. Upgrading the RAM to 2GB is very easy and you need not be an expert to do it yourself. Absolutely no regret buying this piece of hardware.

Value for money, no-frills ultra-portable

Dec 2, 2008

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Value for money, good keyboard, built-in camera & sturdy construction
Cons: No built-in disc drive, fairly heavy for its size, fairly slow start-up time
Opinion:
Bought this at the recent SITEX 2008 and upgraded to a 6-cell battery as well as 2MB RAM all for $799.

This is for my wife's use so that she'll leave my IBM X60 alone and not download silly stuff onto it.

Serves her purpose of connecting to the net, email-ing, watching internet movies, skype-ing and trading stocks. Its such a portable machine but not so small that you can't use it. Plus, it feels sturdy. Only drawback is that despite its dimunitive size (10" screen), its not as light as it could be e.g. it weighs almost like my IBM X60 (which is 12.1").
