I'd recommend an asus EEE either the 2gb version at £180 or the 4gb at £220 but stocks are limited everywhere as it's won many awards. I know there's some on ebay.

Best to check in your local store for stock.

so am i right in thinking the hard drive on these is a sd card? if so v easilly upgradeable? or is the sd card a secondry storage device? so technicly i can just go buy a 8gb or whatever and load it with whatever progs i like

weegie.geek

The SD is secondary storage. It has a SSD for its main storage.
