FF3 is heavy for eee, and it lags on some website (such as youtube). FF2 is not a that heavy, and still tolerable. in fact, i uses that one on my eee. But believe me, 1.5 is better. Or Google Chrome. |

QUOTE(miloy2k @ Dec 1 2008, 09:55 PM) can this eepc watch movie smoothly? since teh size is small thinking can watch movie/anime/etc while one the go Haha this one sure dont read the threads carefully one, here's a sample of what i can do. Running on / Can install Windows XP SP2 - Most if not all support that. In fact all my EEEPC's are running a small Modified version of XP SP3 which is taking only about 400mb in install footprint! Net Surfing, (thus need Wifi and Ethernet support ) - The very essence of an Ultra Mobile PC, we can safely say for both requirements above any UMPC will fit that need. Watch Movies, ( RMVB, Avi , moderate bitrate, maybe sometimes 720HD or 1080HD, rarely but possible) - For this part yes most UMPC will be able to fulfill your needs but having the latest Atom Processor EEEPC in the 1001 I can play all movies except sadly for the movies running on 1080HD and 720HD, well they play but not often smooth. So yes they play but you wont get proper playback. Best stick to normal divx at the normal high resolution and not the super high ones. Play Games, (old school game, Counter-strike 1.6 ) - Playing Warcraft 3 on my old skool EEEPC 701 with 512mb Ram ( All the other ones have been upgraded to 2gb Ram ), Warcraft 3 runs fine on it so safe to say you'd be fine, though playing CS on it may need you to squint a little  Running Diablo 2 on mine now too. Office works ( MS office) - This goes without saying  In Fact MS Office 2007.In fact Ive DUMPED the office laptop at home ( Core 2 Duo Processor ) and brings it to the office only for another screen ( dual screen ), prefer to carry the EEEPC to my meetings, not only do i get the stares, i also get the oohs and aahs showing the prowress of the tiny machine on the BIG Screen. Also I dont have to break my back daily lugging the Office Laptop around. Running Garmin GPS on 2 of the UMPC's now. I have Ultra Big Screen GPS for cheap! QUOTE(zerigemok @ Dec 1 2008, 10:58 PM) Guys, need a quick input here. I'm thinking of buying a used eee901. Is the warranty covered by asus all over the world, (i'll have the receipt of purchase too). And another question, can it connect to an external monitor? I'm gonna use it to surf lots of internet with lots of tabs open and maybe a movie or music playing at the background. Will it be too much for the netbook? Thanks in advance QUOTE(emino @ Dec 1 2008, 11:17 PM) FF3 is heavy for eee, and it lags on some website (such as youtube). FF2 is not a that heavy, and still tolerable. in fact, i uses that one on my eee. Yep, go for Chrome or FF 1.5, im experiencing lag with the newer FF in some of my faster machines too.But believe me, 1.5 is better. Or Google Chrome. Some of my desktops at home also experiences crashes when i have more than 35 tabs open..err maybe i shouldnt open too many of those huh ?  In any case, Chrome still moves fine with those number of tabs open so im just thinking its FF3  This post has been edited by havocx: Dec 2 2008, 10:49 AM |

Running it with 3rd Party GPS receiver Program though will then only work with your machine. You wont be able to install it on another machine with the same serial number. If you get Garmins receiver and software together as a bundle then you can use it together in any machine. I didnt get the Garmins GPS receiver cuz at the time the only option they had was a wired option and i detest wires |

Its actually already on sale from the 1st December at USD 499 but dang 3G is not standard though in Korea theres already a variant release of S101 and 1002HA with 3G.Battery life is wanting though.. 4200mah ? Personally I wouldnt go for it, its sleek and light yes. But then again I could go for Inspiron Mini 12 if i wanted slim. EEEPC 701 and 900 slimness is just right for me  This post has been edited by havocx: Dec 3 2008, 08:05 PM |

QUOTE(emino @ Dec 1 2008, 11:01 PM) I think its local warranty only. Opera works great on the eeepc as well.yes, can connect to monitor/projector. depends on what browser you plan to use. avoid FF3. Try FF1.5 or Google Chrome. |

Usually if people wanna sell second handed stuffs yourself, the formula is to cut the selling price by half, and then add/deduct the item price based on its condition and how fast you wanna let it go.it doesnt have any warranty left though.. |

Emino's right, you might not be able to get the same high prices you got last time.Based on Current latest Ikano promotion EEEPC 701's going for only RM599 Last promotion of EEEPC 900 in IOI Puchong going for only RM699 - thats EEEPC 701 specs with 8.9" screen. The laptop is no longer with Warranty Falling prices of RAM and SDHC cards. Id say for a whole package like yours perhaps you may be able to push at RM500. Thats an estimate only of course, hopefully you get to sell it higher, but more likely youll only be able to push it off lower  |

QUOTE(huh? @ Dec 4 2008, 09:47 AM) hmmm... sounds bad for me as i was looking to sell it somewhere around 700.. Yep, have it around you know somewhat of say an easy access machine. Get your house wifi enabled if its not already and you know that can be on the living room table. Anytime you need or your guest need info for instance its a quick boot ( small SSD and fast ! ) and ur off to get information. Easier than a huge laptop i must say. (IN MY DREAMS!! ..hahaha )i was thinking of getting a portable game console.. i guess ill just keep it rather than selling it.. and get a higher capacity batt pack myb.. Have it next to your LCD and connect a thumbdrive or perhaps a 1TB hdd to it and youre set to have a home theater collection of shows and DVD's Attach a wireless keyboard and mouse on it and connect it to your LCD TV and voila, huge DISPLAY for the very same visitors Possibilities are endless, ive explored them all hehe....besides the Matt cover helps from keeping oily fingers off. Now I can even surf while doing potty business kwakwa QUOTE(shadiee @ Dec 4 2008, 11:07 AM) I really like a brushed-aluminum chassis. If the battery can last around 3hs with wifi on is ok for me. Yep that would be sweet, i doubt itll go that far on the batts its given with though. 2 hours is possible. So yes if its a longer wifi capability ill go for it QUOTE(Hico @ Dec 4 2008, 12:29 PM) s101 available in msia market oledi? how much it cost? Belum. Dunno. Also still waiting for it |

I just got myself Eee PC 900 with 30GB HDD for RM1249 (with win xp) in Penang.
The included HDD is Seagate ST730212DE 3600rpm, SUPER SLOW.  Initially tot that is SDD, but actually is a slow hard drive. So now looking for 32GB SSD....or faster HDD...  Anybody know where to get in Penang? |
