1. ASUS Eee PC 1005HA-PU1X-BK 10.1-Inch Black Netbook 
The Eee PC 1005HA-P Seashell is the perfect netbook for the frequent traveler. With a 10.1 inch display, the Eee PC1005HA-P runs on Asus’s Super Hybrid Engine and has an amazing battery life of 10.5 hours. You will be able to enjoy uninterrupted sessions when writing up important word documents or when you are simply surfing the Web. Its design is based off of a sea shell’s contour shape, incorporating great attention to detail and strikingly bold features. The Eee PC 1005HA-P can be thus considered to be a work of art. It is also embossed with a shimmery “shell” exterior that gives it a slight sheen. However, it should be noted that the hardware of the system is as captivating as its looks. The Eee PC 1005HA-P is equipped with a 92% full size keyboard, offering a comfortable typing experience. In addition, it comes with a multi-touch touchpad and an instant key that allows quick access to a touchpad lock. The screen is an LED-backlit display of 10.1 inches, with a glossy chassis that will prove to be comfortable both on the road and in the home. Its 170GB ASUS Hybrid Storage is more than enough – you will be able to store and share your personal data whenever and however you would like. The Eee PC 1005HA-P is no doubt the best netbook of its class, boasting high performance, ultra-portability and outstanding battery life, leading you into the world of high-tech mobility.
2. Acer Aspire One AOD150-1920 
Acer revamped its older netbook into one that is even better. The display is larger and brighter, and the keyboard is pretty impressive considering its small size. In addition, the right shift key is located in its traditional spot, unlike other netbooks such as those manufactured by Asus or Lenovo. The mouse buttons are situated beneath the touchpad, instead of at the sides. Compared to the previous Acer netbook, it is a lot easier to add more RAM or replace the hard drive (without breaking apart the system or voiding the warranty). Quite honestly, the new Acer netbook has surpassed my expectations – it is essentially a better version of the original, an answer to the previous faults of its predecessor. Note: The screen is a bit glossy and the first batch of orders is going to include the larger 5900ma battery. Although it sticks out a little in the back, the battery life makes up for it. I can assure you that it has one of the longest battery lives out of all the netbooks out there, including the Asus 1000HE and the Samsung 10NC (which cost more). What a deal! In conclusion, the Acer Aspire One has an eye-catching design, a comfortable keyboard, and an HD screen – what more can you ask for?
3. Toshiba Mini NB205-N210 
Weighing in at just below three pounds, and tiny enough to be carried around in a bag or purse, the 10.1 inch Toshiba mini NB205 offers a reasonably-priced, super-portable netbook that is built with a plethora of features to sweeten the package, including a full-sized keyboard and touchpad, a long, sustainable battery, USB Sleep-and-Charge ports, and a hard drive impact sensor to protect data from drops. The battery life, in particular, has an amazing 9 hours of sustainable functioning on a full charge, which will easily allow you to power through the busiest day at school, the office, or wherever you might be that day. The long battery life is helped by the processor, an Intel 1.6 GHz Atom N280, which is designed with a hafnium-infused circuitry and an advanced structure that allows a reduction in electrical current leakage in transistors. The less leakage, the more efficient and sustainable the battery will be. The Intel 945GSE graphics chipset is also included, and allows basic usage, such as surfing the web, running common computer applications, and watching media online or offline, to run smoothly without draining the battery a great deal. Other than its accessory features, the Toshiba mini NB205 (NB205-N210) includes all the essential capabilities common amongst almost all netbooks, including a 160 GB hard disk drive, 1 GB of RAM (with a 2 GB upgrade option), a 54g Wi-Fi networking that utilizes 802.11b/g, an Ethernet port, and a card slot for Secure Digital memory. The system also comes with Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition pre-installed, and allows more advanced users the ability to utilize Windows Live features to enhance their everyday usage. Among the Windows Live features is Windows Live Messenger for chatting through instant messaging and Windows Live Mail, which allows users to consolidate email account right on the desktop.
