ASUS Eee 1000HA Netbook Reviews

buy a pearl white,if you don't want fingerprint on it, October 28, 2008

ASUS Eee PC 1000HA Netbook is my second EEE pc, I have both black one and white one.
The only difference is your EEE pc will look cleaner on pearl white.

1000HA is a solid (but small) product!, October 21, 2008

By K. Bau (Boston, MA) -
I just got ASUS Eee 1000HA Netbook a few days ago (not from Amazon) and am really happy with it. As far as I can tell, it's very similar to the Asus 1000H, but it doesn't have wireless n (just b/g) and it doesn't have bluetooth. For me, that was worth the $50 savings over the 1000H.

Pros:
Good size. It's really easy to carry around. I hate carrying my full size laptop back and forth to work. This one slips nicely into my bag.

Battery life. I get about 4 hours from the battery. I think I could squeeze more out if I used the power saving option and turned off the wireless when I'm not using it. (new note: with power saving options turned on, I get just over 5.5 hrs from the battery. That also reflects having 2gb of RAM installed. - 10/26/08) Still good enough that I don't bring my power cord with me to work unless I'm going to use it all day. And way better than the other netbooks I looked at.

Ease of upgrade. I'm not very tech savvy. However, ASUS Eee PC 1000HA Netbook was WAY easy to open up my 1000HA and pop in a 2gb memory stick, and junk the 1gb stick that comes with this. You just need a small Phillips screwdriver. No weird keyboard lifting and no cracking open cases and no voiding of warranties. I almost bought the Acer Aspire One, which I think is better looking, but it's apparently more technically difficult to upgrade. The hard drive looks easy to upgrade, too. FYI, if you DO upgrade the memory yourself, make sure to F2 into the BIOS on startup. No need to change any settings in the BIOS, but the BIOS needs to automatically recognize the 2gb memory (Windows won't recognize it without the BIOS acknowledgment first).

Weight. Light, but still feels substantial, so it doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart.

Asus name. I guess Asus isn't a big household name, but at least I've heard about eeePC for a little while. I almost bought the MSI Wind, which looked pretty easy to upgrade, too. But I got scared since I hadn't actually seen an MSI Wind anywhere. If someone wants to send me a free one, I'll evaluate it and re-write this review. =)

Cons:
The shift key on the right hand side of the keyboard is in an awkward place. I'm hopeful that my brain will eventually learn where it is so I don't hit the arrow keys or the enter key by mistake all the time, but until then, it's kind of annoying. On the plus side, the rest of the keyboard works great, and I can still type comfortably with it.

Glossy cover. It picks up some fingerprints. Boo. I hear the Fine Ebony version picks up even more fingerprints. They include a good neoprene-like sleeve and a fingerprint buffing cloth to keep the netbook fresh and clean, which is kind of neat.

Exactly what I was looking for!, October 28, 2008

By M. Dang "MDanger" (Irvine, CA) -
I did a lot of research on the ASUS eee PCs and finally decided to buy the 1000HA model. Its perfect for my needs as college student. It allows me to study online lectures, type up documents, and check email anywhere and anytime on campus due to the campus wide wifi connection. The 10-inch screen is bright and easy on my eyes, speakers have good sound quality for such a small notebook, and not to mention the whole unit is pretty sexy looking. ASUS Eee 1000HA Netbook was ready use right out of the box. I do agree with other reviews that although the keypad is perfect size for my medium size hands, the right shift key's placement is a bit annoying. As a whole, I think I might a wise decision going with the cheaper HA model sacrificing more weight and less wireless capability for more storage and better value. It looks like me and my eee PC are going to have a bright future together!
