Thank you for your suggestions although I really would prefer a netbook. I want something I can stick in my handbag and that isn't a brick to try and carry around.

I think i'm going to go with the Acer Aspire One 751. I know its on offer with Asda at the moment.

Does anyone know if its easy to upgrade to 2GB? I can't seem to find the 2gb model with the longer battery life

I just picked up a Dell "Ultra Portable Laptop" with 11" screen. On offer at £299 from Carphone Warehouse at the moment (think they are £399 from Dell but may not be same spec.

Runs Win 7 and seems a decent little machine. We were in same situation as you, wanted a portable machine smaller than laptop but found the smaller 9-10" screens just too tiny

Hope that helps!

I think i've definately made a decision now. After a bit more research i've been looking at the Acer 1410 with 2GB and 250RAM and 11.6 screen.

Although slighty more than I wanted to spend it looks like its more suited to what I want. I'll just have to do some digging for the best deal now!

Just wanted to say thanks to elvch01 for pointing me in the direction of an acer.

If anyone has any comments on the 1410 I would appreciate it

Either of these do?

• £350 @ Dixons with free delivery
• £343 @ Pixmania

That Acer looks exact same specs as Carphone Warehouse Dell, but costs £50 more?

Hmm... so it is. Reviews claim the trackpad is a little iffy, but for the most part it's not a bad machine.

I really like the look of the Acer machine though (if it looks pretty i'm sold ).

I managed to get an introductory discount of 20% with Very so got the machine for £319.00

Thanks for all your help
