Design will polarise opinion

Only a half-generation leap
1GB RAM is not enough
About £150 too expensive
Glossy panel
Poor screen
2 USBs
Only 3h20 battery life
Poor USB access for large USB keys
Lack of ports
Expensive for a netbook. It's lost a USB port!
Somewhere along the way
A USB port has been lost compared to previous numbers - there are just two tucked away on the sides - and the doors they live behind can be a bit too tough to prise open. The screen is almost as dim as Kerry Katona too
But these...

Abstract: Isn't it difficult to distinguish between different netbooks? Not only are the specifications same, they look the same, come in similar colors and more often than not, are made by one OEM manufacturer and sold under different brand names. So, as ...
At Rs. 29,620, the Eee PC 1008HA is the costliest Eee PC ever, no doubt. But if you want a sleek, good looking netbook which does everything it should, you should definitely check the 1008HA out. ...
Super slim design, bright LED screen, good keyboard design, 802.11 n
Expensive, fixed battery
Today we have another Seashell Netbook from Asus, this time its the younger sibling that goes by the name 1008HA and is the 10" version of the 1101HA. If you thought only the screen size is smaller then take a closer look. This new EeePC sports an ult...
Ultra-light in weight, Elegant looks, Smart design, Good performance
Overpriced
Nicknamed Seashell, the EeePC 1008 HA is a cut above the previous models, mainly because of its looks and design. It is sleek, sexy, and very stylish. So far netbook manufacturers have paid most of their attention to features and convenience. But with ...

New slim design; clever hidden ports and connections; thin LED screen.
Near the upper end of the Netbook price scale; hidden ports and VGA dongle can take a little effort to access.

El nuevo Asus EeePC 1008HA Seashell es una maquina atractiva, que ofrece más de lo mismo en prestaciones, pero que supone un punto de partida sin retorno para lograr ordenadores ultracompactos aun mas compactos y bellos donde se combinen las tecnolog...
Design et finition excellents, Très silencieux, Confort d'utilisation, Fin et léger, 2 batteries fournies pour 2 fois plus d'autonomie
Dalle brillante peu lumineuse, Mauvais contraste de la dalle, Connectique peu accessible, 2 batteries, c'est hélas moins pratique
Tendance, léger et silencieux, ce 1008P signé Karim Rashid est une bonne surprise. Sa dalle brillante de qualité médiocre lui coûte sa cinquième étoile. Il reste tout de même un produit agréable à utiliser et facile à transporter. De quoi faire aussi u...
