Whatever you do, don't buy from seller 'Lycfeng' on Ebay.
That b**** f***ing cheated me. RMA 2 months already no response.

That being said, even in S'pore, there are only a few shops that sell Eee extension batteries (6600 and 10400mAh) batteries and I noticed that most on VR-Zone eventually bought through Mass Orders or directly through Ebay.

Here's a link to one such S'pore shop. Knew them from an IT expo:

Looks familiar?

anyone want to trade their eeepc with my vaio SZ?

I have a poor confidence on Sony stuff after that episode in the past when their batteries were exploding all over the place.
So I have valuate your Viao SZ as equal to a lowly EeePC 701.

since when VAIO battery explode?

it is sony made battery for other brand of laptop

SZ is good

so i'm planing to get a 900, anyone knows of a place near subang that have them in stock ?

There's VLC (www.videolan.org) player for Linux... runs on my 701 EeePC.
It's one of the best multi-format-compatible freeware players.

Hi, just want to ask which usb external DVD-RW drive would you all recommend? Thanks. I just reformatted my 701 to win xp and it is nice.

I m using Imation brand, so far works fine n no problem at all for me..........

i don't usually need a dvdrw drive so what i did was i took my hdd casing and connect it to a spare dvd writer i have >_>

USB HDD (3.5"?) casing connected to desktop DVD-RW drive?
Sorry I am out of touch with IT nowadays, but that actually works?

Yes bro.........
Tis is bcoz the HDD n the dvd rom ide are the same, but if sata then cannot lo.......
Just plug n play only, u need 2 dismantel the casing 1st then only u can use it
Take sumthing 2 put under the DVD rom 2 stand it as u know the DVD ROM is bigger size than the HDD

Thanks... I learnt something new today.

these hdd casings are essentially a bridge interface for USB >_>
i think the sata one would work for the sata burner

Yes, u r definetly rite.

i can't wait for 901 already...
