Well, just purchased one via PC World this evening and am awaiting for pick up next week. Already, I've collected all of the bits that I need to make this as good as possible including the new BIOS upgrade.

Looking forward to getting into the membership of the Netbook! biggrin.gif

They managed to get it out for me today, so have collected it and got it up & running.

Even got the BIOS updated to the latest version. And saw the same issue that other had - keyboard not working. Had to take out the battery too.

I disabled un-needed services to make it run more faster.

All I need to do is to find an extra 1GB of memory to fit and I'm done.

Play.com has the memory that can fit this laptop, but I also found this one

http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/partspecs....LE=CT12864AC53E

Similar price as Play.com but this comes with lifetime warranty for a bit cheaper price, so I will be ordering that. biggrin.gif
