Pros
The keyboard works well given the size of the product overall. Though the keyboard is a little small, it is easy to adjust to.
The display is the perfect portable size. The two combined make for a pleasurable viewing experiencing. It fits into any standard brief case and does not add very much weight.
Eee pc has a great battery life and is easy to transport. Comes with a padded carrying pouch that is padded enough for 'local' travel. Built-in sd card reader makes it easy to give updates on your trip.
Has a large hd (160 lb) partitioned into and drives. Great for portability. Usb ports are in the right places.
Cons
The gizmo works ok, but service is a joke. I'm here now hunting for another netbook that hopefully won't aggravate me constantly.

Price
The price was right and i decided to pull the trigger in 2008, and this has been my go to computer for that entire time.
This is an excellent laptop at an incredible price.
Shipping
Not laser fast, mind you, but fast enough.
The full boot time is amazingly fast and to wake up takes only around 7 seconds to resume a couple of apps from sleep.
Packaging/appearance
It was easy to set up and use right out of the box.
:-)one thing that concerned me in purchasing this is if the web browser would fit into the screen.
She was able to use it right out of the box for email, travel sites, and browsing online.
Was tired of lugging my laptop around for presentations.

If you arent a hardcore pc gamer andor you dont need a super powerful computer you probably wont run into any trouble doing your usual activities on it including using photoshop which is something often mentioned as being impossible on a netbook

Also though the keyboard is a little small it is easy to adjust to and the small space is put to good use with a combination of the fn key plus various f keys that do things like change the brightness of the screen and adjust the volume in addition to seperate rectangular buttons above the keyboard for turning off the monitor adjusting the resolution adjusting to 1024x768 is necessary for some programs and websites changing the power consumption mode and another key initially set to open skype that can be changed to do something else
