An improvement over the Eee PC 900, with longer battery life and sleeker looks – but its rivals are catching up

Since the release of the Eee PC 701, the 'Notebook' has dominated. Easy to use, cheap and able to be left on the coffee table next to the remote, Notebooks are true appliance computing. The choice of which one to buy comes down to personal preference, but it's hard not to prefer those with the best usability. Our rundown of your options covers their performance, battery life, and design.

Lacks in power, but terrific hardware design makes this an intriguing take on the Eee brand.

Battery life is turning into a major selling point, as we discover when we tested Toshiba's new mini NB100 netbook.

Yes, it’s bigger and dearer than ever, but it’s also the most usable and well-made Eee PC yet.

More storage and a bigger screen address the main issues that arose with the original, but the price has risen too.

The price war among Netbooks and mini-notebooks is hot at the moment, especially leading up to Christmas. We source the best prices from around the net this week.

Acer’s Aspire one makes a splash. A great keyboard, a fine screen and a keen price make for a superb mini-laptop

The Eee PC1000H grows an inch, packs twice the battery power of its predecessor and might finally have a keyboard worth typing on. But is $699 too much to pay?

It's not much bigger than an Eee PC 901, and will cost a mere $429 when it goes on sale in 4 to 5 weeks. But what does it look like up close? Feast your eyes on our exclusive photo gallery.

The notebook giant is planning an ultra low-cost portable to join the ranks of the Eee PC and MSI Wind (though not necessarily a direct competitor, they say). Check out our pic, and first impressions.

And guess what? There's ONE price for Linux or Windows XP, and price drops for existing models.

You've seen our first impressions, now here's our full review. Good-looking, usable and keenly priced but, for now at least, poor performance and battery life give the Eee the edge

Our pics and first impressions of the hotly anticipated ultra-cheapie, and yes, it's better than the Eee in several ways.

So it'll probably be more expensive than the Eee 900, but take a look at the specs to see what's changed.
