We're worried about the damn hot operating temperature, but otherwise we're blown away by this mini notebook.

It's tiny, it's light, it's got lots of storage, and a bigger screen and more tricks than the current EeePC - it looks like HP has nailed the mini-notebook.

Move over Eee PC, the new HP Mini 1000 reminds us all again why bigger keyboards still rock our world. This could of been the 'mini' notebook to beat all others, except for a few glaring omissions.

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

Fingers crossed the mini Inspiron will be as cheap, and as good as Eee 900 and the HP Mini-Note. Here are the teaser pics.

Can’t decide between an Eee and a Wind? A Mini note or an Aspire One? Believe it or not, there’s a bunch of old school smaller laptops that may do the job for less money. We took a look at 7 old school ultraportables.

Dell's long awaited entry into the Eee-class notebook market is a top effort, though not perfect.

Dell's Inspiron Mini 12 ups the ante in mini-notebooks, with a 12in screen from $999.

A startling achievement: a highly capable mini-laptop for under $700. Only mediocre battery life mars its appeal.

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

There's no annoyingly quirky keyboard. Finger's crossed, but Toshiba's pint-sized mini NB100 notebook looks like it will be a class act when it arrives.

We take each week's best rumours from around the world and list them here in the Weekly Rumour Mill. This week, more companies trying netbooks, crazy takeover rumours, Apple cutting prices, and a PSP redesign.

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

The battle of the mini-notebooks heats up. We get our first peek at Acer's new pint-sized Eee PC challenger, the Aspire One.

The first ultraportable notus has landed in Australia, and we're privileged to be the first to look.

We've had a quick play and can report that it's safe to go with Windows XP on the mini notebook. Read on for more specs.

A full day's battery life? A shock proof casting made from rugged magnesium? Zepto's 12.1 inch portable looks like making our drool-worthy notebook list.

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.

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