 This is definitely a netbook...know what you are getting into! January 27, 2010
J. Cummings (San Antonio TX)
We got this as a 2nd laptop, and had heard a lot about the netbooks (which are pretty much just used for internet).
It is a serviceable netbook, but even if you have the highest speed connection, definitely don't expect the fastest response out there.
As for games, yeah. Pretty much better stick to the basic ones, you aren't running The Sims 3 or WoW on this machine.
Things that do work very well on this laptop is the webcam and the TV Tuner.
Also, it has very good Wi-Fi range, we haven't had a problem with this feature at all.
Overall, we wish we would have spent the extra $200-300 for a regular laptop. But if you just want this for internet and nothing else, it is definitely a serviceable laptop.
PS: Make sure you get Windows 7 with this. Windows Vista + below average processor=LONG loading times.
 Great Netbook December 23, 2009
Alberto Grosmark (Columbia, Maryland)
I could not be happier with this product. The setup was easy, all features working as expected, very portable and fast at the same time and the HDMI allows me a new visual experience when I connect the netbook to my HD big screen TV/Monitor. Again this is a wonderful product, so far, running and running. My only technical problem is that the TV receiver freezes the screen when I try to see air HD channels. I think that the video card may be not the right one for the amount of processing that is needed.

I purchased this netbook after a dreadful experience with an ASUS netbook, and experiencing their disastrous version of customer support. (Amazon's dependable superior customer support gave me a full refund for the ASUS computer.) The Dell was a snap to set up and has performed flawlessly since being first booted. It is everything I expected and a great bargain in the current market. In comparison to the ASUS, it is a dream. I only regret that it I didn't buy it first.
My Favorite New Toy! A Must Have & Whats With the Bad Reviews? October 5, 2009

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R28HS6K9SKT4VA I just purchased my Dell Mini 10 (Blue Cover) and I have to say that this was one of the best investments I ever made. If you think you are getting a high end laptop for the price of three-hundred bucks, then you are sorely mistaken. This is basically a smart phone PDA increased to the size of a ten inch screen with a keyboard attached. Most of the bells & whistles are intact.
At first it took me some time to get use to the screen. Websites are slightly altered due to the 10 inch screen, so and with the tool bar on top that includes (File, Refresh, etc) it can seem like there's hardly any room to view webpage's, but you'll get use to it. Viewing any site that you would on a regular desktop will have certain parts of the page moved around when viewing it on your netbook & this is to be expected because of the size.
I know everyone is complaining about the keypad, but it's really not that bad. It does take a few tries before you realized what works best for you. I've learned from having a Dell Studio Laptop that the best thing to do is just utilize the free space as a mouse and click. Don't bother trying to hit down on the key, but just double tap on the keypad to pick a selection. If you don't, you will find the experience of navigating through websites, typing a document on word, etc to be a horrendous experience.
Otherwise, if you are looking for a great small compact netbook to stay connected to the web, check email, browse a few sites - then this is the netbook for you. There isn't much customization due to the small size of the netbook that feels very light just a little under three pounds and practically smaller and skinnier then the new Twilight book. I would have it ordered it on amazon, but it was cheaper through Dell.
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase because it's a great investment for anyone who needs internet access on the go. The only complaint I have is the price. I know its three-hundred, but I own a regular laptop with a 15 inch screen & that HP was only three-hundred. Sure, it was not a high end groundbreaking laptop, but it does the trick & power wise, it's stronger than the mini. I really feel the price point should drop by hundred bucks. Otherwise, this is still a great PC tool to have.
Pros:
Light weight (Less then three pounds)
Customizable Cover with different colors
Windows XP (Thank GOD - Vista is so WHACK)
Keyboard is 90% size of a real keyboard
Wi-Fi
3 USB slots
160GB Memory
1.66 GHZ
1GB RAM
Cons:
A bit pricey IMO - It really should be two hundred & under
No DVD Slot
