Hey guys, great deal I found. It is an initial $379.99 with a 30 dollar MIR from ZipZoomFly, which brings it to $349.99. There is also an additional $30 dollars of when you use their eBillMe service. When I checked, they were even giving free shipping!
With all that, the grand total for this netbook to only $319.99 after rebates.
I have been shopping around for a nice lightweight laptop for myself recently. This thing seems to be one of the best netbooks out there right now. It has a large enough screen and keyboard that you wont have to strain. Yet it is small and light enough to still be super-portable. It has builtin bluetooth and wireless N (most netbooks don’t) and a UNHEARD OF 9.5 hour battery rating.
Even if the fudged the numbers a little (don’t they all?)… that is going to be a hard claim to beat. It sounds so good, I just ordered one myself. You should hop on this deal, before they sell out!
