Summary
We won’t have any problems with online time, thanks to the two batteries. The normal-sized one keeps the machine running for about 3 hours, while the extended capacity one offers about 6 hours of online time, I think the latter one will be enough for everyone.
Before the summary let’s take a look at multimedia features. The gadget is theoretically perfect for listening to music, as we can attach any kind of 3.5 mm headset, and it has a medium sound quality when on loudspeaker. It plays back DivX/XviD movies without a problem, and we can even watch DVD movies, using the external drive, there will be no trouble with picture quality. It’s not the best choice for games though; the performance of the GMA950 chip is not enough for more demanding 3D games. The situation is not that bad, however, as the DX9 and Shader Model 2.0-compatible runs Quake 3 like a charm for example, but we shouldn’t be experimenting with Crysis. It’s possible that HD movie playback will be problematic as it doesn’t support this format that much, and the CPU in not so powerful to make up for it.
Summary: well, what could I say? For such a price buyers get a really nice package, but this amount of money would be enough for a really good notebook… or for a not so good notebook and a smart PDA. The machine itself is still very good, it’s comfortable to use, and I’m only disturbed by the touchscreen’s problem. I would in no way buy it for so much, but it’s still cool stuff.
