If you could find RM1799 + 2gb ram, thats a good deal

2 weeks ago thundermart in puchong want to sell 1000h at 1699. then to add 2GB they offer 85 only. good deal, eh?

I concur, the paddings actually superbly excellent. My cousin, got one from me, dropped her EEEPC from
1.2M, yes its not that high for some but its still a drop, no cracks on the 901. It helped it was SSD too

On this I for one beg to differ. Once the price difference is not that far Battery Life plays a MAJOR IMPORTANT
role, well at least for me who's always on the move, if youre always one to be able to find a Power Source then its not a big problem, but in airports, trains and buses and sometimes even while travelling not having power is an issue no matter how slim or pretty the other laptop looks like.

Even if you always find power and always run with battery and power plugged in at the same time youre just going to ruin the battery life so no, if the battery life is longer, its cheaper, even though comparing them side by side one looks much slimmer and prettier, I'd personally still go for the cheaper longer battery.

yeah if battery life is the utmost priority then go for the older. but i LOVE the look & feel of 1002 that i'm willing to forgo the battery life. i think i can live with 4hrs battery life

i wonder is it because i always use my 1002ha in power saving mode or its because the battery were different than 1000h model...i heard they said different battery type

mine can lasted at least 4++ hours for documentation usage, like running Microsoft office and online msn (but im using low brightness, turn off camera and blue tooth)

lasted about 3+ hours when playing movie files with medium brightness with wifi on for online and msn (i often use my netbook to watch movie, and my dramas)

bro havocx,

Actually battery type, usage and brightness would play a major role. But then again the contention here is that perhaps for only RM100-200 difference, youd already by default have a very good battery.

Batteries as we know cost a bit, of course one could get a higher end nicer model but then to later need a longer battery may be an issue. Not firing anyone here nor saying im all the correct source

I like your option for the 3+ hours though on that usage, personally for me though, id rather go with at least 5 hours on that one. Ie for having all these running ( playing movie files with medium brightness with wifi on for online and msn )

bro havocx,

Hey no worries, you actually got a few ideas from different folks here, just choose whats right for you.
Whats right for me may not be right for you

one company at lelong sells asus 1002 at 1879 inclusive of 2GB RAM. seems the best price so far but company in johor with free shipping... wonder should go for it or not..

Guys, I have one unreserve stock for 1000HE coming next week.

This is unit have 1.66GHz atom N280, 9.5 hours rated battery (6-cell), 1Gb memory and 160gb hard drive. The price is RM1950

I've called local Asus and they said EEE PC are regional warranty, so there will only support with fee. So make sure you make up your mind before ordering. If you want to claim warranty in the US, i can assist you but all fee will be bear by buyer.

I was helping one of the forumers to get one. I bought another one in case someone else wants it.

dont think could lasted 5 hours for movies, 2 cell battery only in 1002ha,

i wonder if 1000ha could lasted 5 hours with 6cell battery for movies entertainment

My netbook are infected by a crazily tough virus that I decided to reformat. But before that, gonna try these 'eeebuntu'

bro emino,
Can let me know the exp after u tried eeebuntu?
