netbooks/mini laptops

I couldn't find anything on this using search. does anyone own one or have any recommendations for/against getting one? I travel quite a bit for work and this seems to be something I could use. the laptop I have now is a bit cumbersome to lug around, so I don't always carry it out of town with me. I use it in the evenings after work at the hotel to surf the web and listen to music. it's not at all for work or anything work related-just for my personal use. any advice or suggestions will help. Thanks.

This was a useful video when I was shopping for them a while back.

My company is going to be re branding these:

This is after looking at some of the other manufacturers. I got to bring one home this week and really liked it.

I bought a Acer aspire one a couple of months ago and use it for basic internet surfing. I like it as long as I use it for pretty much basic stuff. The keyboard and the touch pad is smaller, so if you have big hands you might get annoyed. Its pretty light too.


Heres the one I have.
