I have eeepc701 4g os xp sp2 4gb SSD with 2bgram & 4gb SDHC.
I just test it with eeepc 900 xp sp3 30gb HD sata with 2gb ram & 8gb SDHC.

At first, i,m sad when i compare my eeepc701 that i bought 3mths ago witht he eeepc900 that is saw past few day at lowyat.

But after i test both of them, i will stick with my eeepc701.( i tot of selling it that day!)

eeepc 900 with 4400mah batt have shorter stamina comparing with eeepc701.

eeepc900 got bigger touchpad but i found that eeepc701 touchpad is more precise. the eeepc900 tapping on the touch pad is not as good as 701. fail double tap so many times.

eeepc900 screen is far more better than stock 701. but after i install eeepc tool beta1.0, the display for 701 problem is solve with 800 x 600 alltough is kinda like out of actual ratio.

Sound for 701 has better stereo seperation than 900 which has the speaker built beneath the keyboard.

Both has same 900mhz intel celeron. startup & shutdown for 4gb SSD seems to be like instant comparing with 30gb HD which need more processing time.

u can try holding both eeepc701 & eeepc900. U can feel the weight difference. eeepc701 is lighter & slimmer a bit.

If without those pro that i found with eeepc701, i will definitely sell out my eeepc701 by this week.

I use my eeepc701 just for msn, internet surfing, youtube, mp3, msoffice 2003.

WC3 Dota is install in external drive.

For me, eeepc is for the size. It has class of it own. Do more than a PDA for internet & chat, Lighter & smaller than a normal laptop. I given up with pda once i got this eeepc.

where u bought ur eeepc? i find allover lowyat and i can't find 5200mah & 5800mah btt for both model.

mine is 4400mah which i do ask b4 my supplier why i got 4400mah.

is true for the SSD is more faster than the 30gb HD. in fact i read it from one article tht SSD will replace present HD by 2010.
