shipping was $9.45 for me, making the total before CashBack $139.44. did not pull the trigger, but I am intrigued. get me a slightly faster CPU (at least 1GHz) and free shipping, and I would bite.

the cpu can be un underclocked back to stock 900mhz with eeectrl which is more thant enough for a netbook. The only downside is the 7inch screen but I have one and I still think it is great for this price. accessories and extra batteries are dirt cheap.

Got this one during the summer with xp. At first it had tons of issues ( which is why i think who ever had it returned it ) but following some tweaks it worked out very well. At the time i almost wished i had gotten the linux instead. If all you use it for is surfing, e mail, twitter, face book, it should serve you well. Due to the size you do have to adjust the window viewing when surfing. If plan on using it for hulu and or watching movies this might not be a good selection for you. So glad i got it and not have to see what bf brings! Thanks op for showing this !
this might be good as a basic home server for file sharing, VOIP (MagicJack), home automation and other assorted tasks. Uses very little power so leaving it on wouldn't be a concern. Has a built-in battery backup and screen & keyboard.
Mine just arrived and I am very disappointed with it. The box is ripped to shreds and it does appear to just be a return they sent back out to me. I can't tell you anything more since they didn't bother to include the power cord!

EEEPC is not good for basic home server/etc, laptops are not designed to have equivalent lifespans as desktops so any use where it's on 24/7 is a bad use unless you rip the guts out and improve cooling, and upgrade the AC adapter as it too is not rated for equivalent lifespan to a large unit (which is why they are larger).
