    Yep, OOS. This is so frustrating. I really, really wanted a red one. :(

    Gone from the website now. I feel very fed up about missing it again.

    Nothing they have both come with the exact same specs.
    There was some confusement about if it was going to be the N270 or the N450, due to website error in description.
    N270 is older model.
  • I am getting my blue notebook on Friday by courier. Can anyone please tell me if:
    1. I can watch movies if I use external DVD drive (I already own one)
    2. Can I install Adobe Photoshop Elements to edit pictures on it
    3. What is the typing like on 10" notebook? I want to use it to write emails, if it is not possible due to keyboard too tiny, I will have to return it :(
    (I know I am not able to use 7" keyboard for tablets for typing at all).

    I would download vlcplayer
    myfairrlady
    post_new.gif as it uses few resources or media player classic

    I doubt it would cut it with HD that said its not really hd resolution anyway but should play divx/xvid you can put these one a pen drive or get a usb dvd player

    should be able to edit small pictures you might be best get some more ram it was posted on this thread where to get some from

    The keys are smaller on a netbook so no good unless you have small fingers for typing fir long you coudl use a bigger usb keyboard/mouse (maybe need a usb hub for around £5)

    Myfairrlady: I am a touch typist, I use a fullsize natural keyboard at work and a netbook at home. I have absolutely no problem switching between the keyboard types and sizes, and can type just as fast on my netbook's keys.
