Yeah..Bought Inspiron already cos I needed their light 12.1" for travelling. No problems for this model's LCD and its very good with minimal light leakage compared to the other Inspiron models like the 6000,9000 which have bigger screens. The only LCD problem I had was dead-pixels and I got it changed during waranty and even got a better screen for it. Lattitude lightweight ones were out of my budget that time. Needed a sub 2kg lappie.

Yeah, I wished that too. Using a SDIO Wifi would just drain the batt though. If Mini came with Wifi, there would be no market for ATOM/DOPOD 818

haha... after some time... you will really love it very much and you can't stand without it not even 1 hour..

p/s: make sure you close all the running program (Start>Setting>System>Running Program>close all) frequently to make more free memory.. to avoid hang problem and battery can last long

oh.. dats really helpful azfy.. thanks! i wrapped it with a silicon casing... hehe... should be tough..

DON'T be fooled by silicone casing. It can trap dust inside and this might scratch you O2 Mini in the event of slight knocks/drops.....Clean periodically

wat is the best thing to to protect mini?
the alu casing sometimes not nice to grip, if i wrap it with skin mask, will it have rubber feel?
i like the grip of 818pro black. but easily have fingerprint.

Normally what i done to run my mini smoothly is:
1. I do close all program after i used it..
2. All new program i install it into my SD card.. so mean in my mini memory only the basic software installed.
3. Try to avoid use any 3rd party software at your TODAY screen (desktop).. such as.. pocket plus.. O2 active.. etc.. At my today screen.. you can see very clean.. only have battery indicator.. it can help more...
4. Please ONLY install software that you really need..
5. I only use stock theme.. haha...

so far i do not facing any hang... lag.. or what ever problem from my mini.. it run smoothly..

p/s: just my opinion..

my mini also never encounter any hang bcoz of low memory.
Try to isntall SPB pocket plus 3.0, it use only a bit memory and help you to close program whenever memory is running low.

Same here. SPB Pocket Plus won't take that much mem. Just install all programs in SD/MMC card, indicate programs to save files to SD/MMC, use less Today screen programs and you should be fine.

how do i make the mini to install programs to mmc?, cause i use my pc to sync the sw from pc to mini and it was installed into the mini very fast without giving me time to choose which storage place to install those files to.

btw thanks for all those advice.......

thanks bro

thanks for everything........
how to indicate those programs to sav files to mmc?
i really like my avatar...........
thanks again
