Amazon.com Product Description
Get the power of a full-sized laptop in the ultra-compact ASUS Eee PC 4G, which offers a full QWERTY keyboard, 7-inch screen, and preinstalled Linux operating system. (This laptop is also compatible with the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.) You'll be able to stay connected to email and the Internet easily thanks to the Wi-Fi LAN (802.11b/g), and communicate via video chat and VoIP with the Webcam integrated into the display's bezel. Because it uses flash memory instead of a hard drive (with 4 GB of storage), the Eee PC is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags.

Simple computer for the road
If you need a computer that is easy on your shoulders (and wallet) to check email, surf the web and do some light work with an Microsoft Office equivalent, this is the laptop for you. I upgraded the on board RAM to 2 Gb and added a 16 Gb SD card for extra storage, thus the 4Gb SSD is not a limiting factor. The battery could last a bit longer (about 2 hours with WiFi on and not too heavy web surfing). Windows user will not have any trouble adapting to the Easy Mode of the particular Linux distribution that comes with it, and it is fully functional out of the box, as all basic software comes pre-installed. The only problems are the small form factor, so if one plan to use it for extended period of times or as primary computer one would probably want to hook it to external monitor, mouse and keyboard, and the recovery DVD disk (included). It could not generate a functional bootable USB disk to restore factory installed software after a botched operational system upgrade. I could only make my Eee-PC work again after hooking an external USB DVD drive and booting directly from the recovery DVD.
Easy to get hot, no tech support
It gets hot in a few minutes, and sometimes have problem with the internal card reader. Emailed tech support twice. No response. The company can fire the tech support and reduce the price of the pc. For the same price, I'd buy a normal laptop which is much more powerful.
Everything I expected it to be...
I now have had this pc for a month now and I am really enjoying. I was able to do quite a bit of research before my purchase, so I knew going in what to expect. It is really fast. Connecting to the internet and surfing is very good. I have gotten used to the typing and can now touch type. I will be doing a lot of traveling and the size of it (or lack thereof) is incredible. Until you get your hands on one, it is hard to describe how small it really is. One word of caution is that some USB connection appliances may not work/connect. I was not able to connect my Sony camera. But, I have connected mouse, flash drives, usb drives and they all are picked up quickly by the pc. Overall, a great mini-computer for those who will not rely on it too heavily...internet, email, documents...and for a traveler is perfect.
