They'll enable your search in Windows for instance to work almost Instantenously. They will be able to run programs faster when launching, they have similar write times ( although just a tad faster ) to that of very very fast HDD's already in the market. I may be wrong in the SSD prices though, the latest update I got was that you can get the Intel SSD 80gb ( one the biggest and fastest in the planet ) for about RM1300 i think. But yes, they are expensive. Just like Thumbdrives when it first came out, just need to wait till more folks adopt its use to bring prices down, just like how cheap 1TB HDD's are nowadays. expensive ~ i think 2gb or 4gb wont be enough for me anyway, my basic application and things took about 6gb in total, not yet including my pictures and games Added on June 22, 2009, 11:29 am QUOTE(coldfission @ Jun 21 2009, 07:41 PM) thx for the reply and sorry for making trouble to u guys.. im new in this thread and not really read through 50 pages of this thread.. anyway thx for clearing my doubt btw here is all the comparison of battery time http://event.asus.com/eeepc/comparison/eeepc_comparison.htm just reduce 40% of the battery time they written, if you want it to running video, internet, and song non stop the time they written is under minimal usage, low brightness, no bt, no webcam on This post has been edited by Maximp: Jun 22 2009, 11:29 AM

At home personally I have currently about 9TB worth of files. That also says a whole lot of what I'd have installed on my machines. ie if personal files can grow to be about that much at least 15% of that should be program files and divided between the machines I have and the various installations flavors they come in you'd find that it would have been very hard for me to run my machines just on 4gb. But run I did and still am. The speediest of the lot that i have with me is still my trusty 701 Celeron EEEPC with 4gb SSD. XP installation on it ? Just 898 Mb. The rest of my installation files goes to my always slotted in 16GB SDHC. In short for the 701 i would then have about 20GB worth of space and flash memory. im full of files too but about 3TB worth, mostly burn into dvd and kept in external hardisk but my netbook alone i keep all my stuff , company files, videos, advertising material, and etc~ so ssd without larger alternative wont be enough for me wonder if the news true or fake..128gb thumb drive..i willing use those if they were cheap and real, but beware, my network from china brought in several fake 64gb thumbdrive which is fact just 512mb

And right you are only Warranty would be a problem as Asus's Netbooks comes with a caveat on its International Warranty as discussed earlier. You'd perhaps be able to get a warranty on the machine the first 3 months while its in Malaysia ie accepted by the Local Asus Royal Club, after which perhaps a service charge will apply when its sent in even if its less than one year. Risks ? NONE. Laptops will not be taxed by our local customs, since its gonna be hand carried back by your friend theft is not an issue. As usual do not put the laptop in the check in luggage since then that's about the only risk you'll have. Power supply is covered since the built in adapter will do the job. You might wanna get an adapter for the US head or just buy a new charger ( its only RM60 - RM 80 from Asus Royal Club ) if you find its hard to carry an extra head adapter Do Asus netbooks ever get spoilt ? Oooh too general a question, of course they will. Have i seen one that's spoilt ? Nope. Have I ever owned one that spoilt ? Nope. And i was one of the very first buyers of the 701 model which by now would have been about nearly 1 year and 8 months already and guess what ? Its still going on strong! And im rough! But of course, folks like Hangy2k have had HDD problems and SSD problems before but in general, ive not heard of the Netbooks breaking down unless you actually mean to break them ie like sitting on them havocx, can you tell me where is the asus royal club? i kinda wanted to buy an extra charger for my 1002ha...really rm50-rm60 so cheap?

Got so many adaptors, some even only RM50, but, do you really trust them? If anything goes wrong, your notebook gets fried like KFC. 3rd party China adaptors are not worth it. yeah thing that related to power better dont mess with it QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ Jun 27 2009, 02:41 PM) where can find 1002ha in car charger ??? sorry lazy to look around Added on June 27, 2009, 3:14 pmhey guy want to ask something. i just get my 1002ha yesterday but i find the screen abit dark compare with normal laptop, issit normal ???

On my way Senior Member 656 posts Joined: Aug 2006 From: Kuala Lumpur N' Kajang	QUOTE(SKY 1809 @ Jul 3 2009, 05:43 PM) Hi Folks, I plan to transfer DVD movie using my PCs and stored on 16GB Pendrive, for watching with 1000H. My first 2 dvd were successful tranferred using Nero 7, and the quality is like DVD 9. The third failed with the message " Out Of Memory" while writing onto PC HDD ( 100GB free ). Though i set my PC ( with 2 gb ram ) and virtual memory of 10gb, it still comes out the same problem. I odeli have a bulky external DVD drive for software installations, not for carrying around. and Not likely to buy a slim dvd drive. Could some one help plse ? 10Q i think the lens or the disc got dirty, but you can try google tera copy which is free to use and fast

Upon fully charge, XP software indicate that I have about 6hrs usage, but the battery bar gives only 4 hrs. But the actual usage is about 5 hrs or so. What does that indicate ? a bit of confused . battery bar vs xp software battery bar more accurate for actual average time, just let ur netbook running for several week it will adjust , mine at the begining 3hours now become 4hours and 30min, it is calculated based on average usage time xp software is kinda like based on the processes , if you doing something stressful to ur netbook it shows 2hours then when you let it idle for a while it becomes 4hours , its accurate when your netbook is not idle..so basically when watching movies, xp tends to be very accurate on that side.
