I have the asus, and it’s pretty handy so if you’re itching to get it, go ahead. I agree with your husband - for that price, you don’t really need to think twice. But I gotta warn you, the keyboard is way too small, even for me

haha, i’m in the same boat, gem, except that my hubby is egging me to just get one already. he says there will ALWAYS be new ones coming out anyway. and for that price, it’s almost “disposable”: use for 1-2 years and replace. i swear, i’m THAT close to getting one na.

ruth, i was so ready to hit the buy button for asus! naudlot lang because of this cloudbook. now, i’m totally confused which one is better. hubby is telling me to wait because this is an emerging market and for sure, more companies will jump into this mobile internet market. haaay….i’m giving myself few months…i’ve been wanting a mini-notebook for so long. i’m still partial with asus than the cloudbook because of the design and color.
