Buying ASUS Eee PC 1000HE 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - 9.5 Hour Battery Life

Eagerly opened my first netbook, only to find I just could not get the wireless working properly. Downloaded new drivers,still not working right. I got it connected to my wireless network fine, and some websites came up, but others just froze. When I connected it via cable to the LAN, all was fine, but the wireless was freezing up. Called the 800 number for Asus, a woman walked me through some diagnostics, and declared that I must have a bad wireless adaptor. I could send it to ASUS for repair, or return to Amazon. No question there. Thanks to Amazon for a great return program, within a few days I had a new unit and all is well. Wireless is fine, keyboard is comfortable. Battery so far is in the 7-8 hour range, but I have not played with any of the settings yet to try and increase it. Yes, the speaker is weak, but no worse than my 2 year old Toshiba laptop. So I would recommend this unit. Just disappointed that the first unit received was defective. Glad I bought it from an easy to return site like Amazon.Get more detail about ASUS Eee PC 1000HE 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - 9.5 Hour Battery Life.
