Keyboard feels flimsy; online storage is free for only one year; video playback skips
Built around Intel’s new Pine Trail platform, this 10-inch netbook has a reasonable price, an excellent battery, and performance that slightly outstrips more expensive models. ...

Abstract: The Eee PC 1005PE retains the stylish good looks of its predecessors in the Seashell range and the new Atom CPU is more energy efficient while boosting battery life, yet overall performance is only marginally improved and the price is less competitive...
