Amazon.com Product Description
Get the power of a full-sized laptop in the ultra-compact ASUS Eee PC 4G, which offers a full QWERTY keyboard, 7-inch screen, and preinstalled Linux operating system. (This laptop is also compatible with the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.) You'll be able to stay connected to email and the Internet easily thanks to the Wi-Fi LAN (802.11b/g), and communicate via video chat and VoIP with the Webcam integrated into the display's bezel. Because it uses flash memory instead of a hard drive (with 4 GB of storage), the Eee PC is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags.
 With a rapid start-up time, the Eee PC is always ready to get into action. Note that this product is black, not white as shown in the image. |
For the professional, the Eee PC comes with a powerful selection of software to maximize personal productivity--over 40 built-in applications. The Open Office suite of software enables the user to open, edit and create documents, presentations, spreadsheets and databases that are compatible with Microsoft Office. For journalists, photographers and other professionals who need to use a computer in the field to create, to communicate and to collaborate with other colleagues, the Eee PC's combinati on of power, extreme portability and rugged build makes it the ideal computing solution.
It's also a great choice for young students, with a built-in Dictionary that's great for homework, and it includes two modes of intuitive graphic user interface design to accommodate both experienced and inexperienced PC users. The Eee PC also handles your digital images, movies, and music as well as Internet radio.
 No technical manual required with the specially designed, user-friendly, and intuitive graphic interface. |

It's backed by a 1 year warranty for parts and labor.
Customer Reviews
Slow encrypted wireless connection, otherwise great
I bought this because I travel a lot and needed a small, light weight PC. This fit the bill perfectly. I use a large cloth cosmetic case and usually don't have to take it out when going thru security. It pops right into my purse. A few things I had problems with -- (1) the small keyboard takes getting use to. I finally cut my nails which helped in my case. (2) the right shift key was awkward and I usually ended up hitting the "up" key. I finally corrected this by putting a small drop of glue on the "Shift" key which tells me I am on the right key. (3) The compressed screen is helped by pressing the "F11" which compresses the headings. (4) My biggest problem, and one that really detracted from my enjoyment during a six week trip to Europe was the connection to wireless networks. While it would connect immediately with an unencrypted network I could not get it to connect with either WEP or WAP in Europe. Hotel staff tried at several hotels but had no more luck than me. My call to the ASUS tech support put the blame on the hotels (7 of them?) and just dismissed my complaint. On arriving back in the states I went to my son's house who had an encrypted wireless router. It wouldn't work. He unlocked his router and it worked immediately. I called ASUS but they were too busy to take my call but promised to call back. They never did but in the meantime my son had re-encrypted his router and I tried to connect. It didn't connect but I left it on (it was pending) while waiting for the call back and to my surprise it connected, after about 20 minutes. I disconnected and tried it again. Once again, 20 minutes to connect. I don't know what to do about that and if anyone has a solution it would be appreciated. Otherwise I love this little darling. I use my airline earphones to listen to talk radio and music (not on the airplane) and love the fast power on.
Great Motorcycle Traveling Companion
I wont duplicate all the previous reviews. I want to add that this little unit is great for traveling with on a motorcycle. I have had it for nearly a year, and its nowhere near as finicky about rough handling as a full size (and expensive) laptop. Once it's slipped into the DVD player case I bought for it, along with the charger, USB retractable travel mouse, and a little laptop light, its ready for the rough and tumble world of riding around tucked into a saddlebag.
Full size laptops are cumbersome to carry on a bike, but this thing is quite happy, with no worries because of the Solid State Drive. Plus this PC works great for checking email, surfing and playing media. Lots of places now have free or low-cost wifi, and this little unit finds them and connects easily. I can take digital pics and movies with my camera, plug the SD card into the slot, and easily share pics and videos with friends along the way.
The screen is small, and the tiny keys arent really 'biker friendly', but I dont use it to write the Great American Novel anyway. I do have a cheap $80 desktop monitor that I can plug into, and that makes doing things much easier when I bring it home.
Two other previous laptops I have owned were huge disappointments in terms of usability and durability, but this little 701 is 'just right'.
It worthes $100
I knew the company made too much profit one it, but still could not help buy got one at $390 at this beginning of the year after reading all the positive reviews.
1. Bad technical support. Emailed two questions, no answer.
2. Card reader constantly has error when it is hot in summer.
3. Less powerful cpu (actual speed 600MHz). I added 2G memory. They are useless with such cpu. Cannot properly play the popular MKV format movie.
4. It is small, but it does not fit my pocket. I don't see much difference with a normal laptop when carrying it for travel.
5. The key board is too small. Those who has a PDA with mini key board knows it.
6. I am wondering whether all those positive reviews are from the true users.
Wish I had bought a much powerful laptop at the same price I paid for this one.
