    Not out of stock on expansys.

    Although checked their FB on amazon and seems they hit 6% negatives this month, mostly about the fact they advertise IN STOCK when it's "virtual stock" - that is another way of saying OUT OF STOCK AND ORDERED WHEN YOU PAY US.

    I got one from expansys a few days ago.

    Cracking bit of kit in my opinion.

    I have got it running windows 7 and dual booting with Ubuntu netbook remix (although I am only really using it with Windows though.

    Got an extended battery from dealextreme on the way.

    Also you can pick up a reasonably cheap 3g dongle for it too

    It suits me to a T.

    I know not alot about computers, I tend to have a few favourite sites I go to & check my e-mail. So can only go by how good it is for me.
    I flit on & off during the day & find it is very handy to put it to sleep so I dont have to reload everytime I log back on.
    I have a gripe with the e-mail facility as it doesnt let me click on links for websites (particularly MSE links) & although I have set it to check my e-mail every 5 mins it doesnt seem to do this for some reason. Hubbie is looking into this for me so Im keeping my fingers crossed it can be sorted. Apart from that I am enjoying it.
