Yes, this is what I am mostly thinking of using this little PC for. It would be also nice to have battery last for about 2 hours so that on a flight I can watch a DVD (via USB connection).

Thank you for sharing your experience.

>My wife has been using one for a couple of months. She finds it easy to take with her almost anywhere due to its small size and light weight. Battery life seems good, as would be expected from a machine with a small screen and a solid state drive, but I've never really asked her how long it actually goes on a single charge. To me it seems primarily well suited for e-mailing and web browsing on the road, but if that's all you need it sure beats hauling a full-size laptop around.

>>I was wondering, it is as good as they advertise? Since it has Linux, what type of browser I could install on it? What type of work processor? I guess I could install XP OS but not sure if it is powerful enough. The spec of the one I am looking at is:
>>
>>Intel Celeron M Processor ULV 353
>>512Kb L2 Cache
>>900 Mgz FSB
>>802.11 b/g
>>7"WVGA display
>>512 Mb RAM
>>2 GB solid-state drive
>>10/100 NIC
>>Intel GMA 900

>>Any experience?
