I can't believe no one has commented on this review!
The Eee 701 is the by far one of the most successful UMPC (or Netbook) in history. It has sparked an influx of competitors at bargain prices. I know that mine will stay with me for a long while yet, perhaps it'll become a collectors item. ;)
Oh, and I wrote a review, check it out. :)

Comment made about the PC Authority article:
Asus Eee PC 701?
A genuine step forward for the laptop, with unbelievable capabilities for the price, plus an ultra-low weight.
What do you think? Join the discussion. |

It is indeed a corker. Keep your eyes peeled, though, for the next issue of PCA, which will have a review of the Eee's hottest competition to date, the Acer Aspire One. |

The EEE has already been replaced by the 900 and 901, not to mention the superior MSI Wind, the Acer ASpire One and now the HP mini.
All of which are as good if not better, than the EEE Pc's which still suffer from poor keyboard designs, a somewhat unresponsive touchpad and low capacity SSDs |

I can't agree with the 'unresponsive touchpad', although I agree with the keyboard issues. The Eee 1000H seems to be the best Netbook, apart from its price. |

I just got a eee 4G 701 (Linux) for my son... I have to say... I want to keep it for myself ! I love these little machines ! I want to give him my Dell XPSM1730 and I will keep the 701 !
It connected to my wireless network no problem and sync'd to my HP 7180 all-in-one printer... I even have 3 mobile broadband running on it with the new model E160 modem... works a treat.
Its fun to use... draws attention (everybody wants one), works really well, is fast and I cannot complain about a thing on it.
Keyboard and trackpad work well, if a little small. Right-hand shift key is in a strange place.
Anything I have plugged into the USB ports work... portable drives, keyboards etc.
For the price now ($299 for mine) you cant complain. |
