Read that the 1105ha comes with a 1.3 Ghz proc instead of the 1005ha( which has a 1,6 Ghz). Can anybody tell me if that makes a noticable difference? (And while where at it, can somebody explain me why asus made this weird choice...)

the 1101ha sports the 1.3Ghz Silverthorne which is way slower than the N270 with 1.6Ghz! It's noticeable

[Redspy27]

Thanks for the response. Downside is that that means I don't want the 1101ha, weird choice from asus! Only other options are samsung n510 (lot more expensive) or HP 311 (net yet available in holland). So many netbooks yet no perfect one for me damnit:P

And thanks for the video's btw, they're very informative.

thx a lot for your feedback and wait for the HP. It's a nice device

Redspy already asked my question, but exactly when is it noticeable?

When playing games or using Windows 7 or?

I am either getting 1005HA or 1101HA for like 100 dollars more, the only difference really is the screen size on the latter right? Is it worth spending that much more?

I'm going to use it for studying primarily.

The biggest different is you'll see longer battery life in the 1005HA. Its one of the top 3 units in my opinion for battery life. If you find you need it a little quicker just upgrade to 2G of RAM.

If you are just using it for notes, power point & surfing both will suit your needs just fine. I might spend the extra money on a carrying case or an extra battery, you could go 16 hours non stop in the library. . .although that could be a down side ;)

@Redspy27 the 1.6 ghz is faster loading than the 1.33 ghz but i overclocked mine soo it goes 1.75 ghz ;)

this does seem like a very nice mini-laptop. i was asking my dad for a laptop for my birthday but i was worried the 11.6 inch screen might not be big enough. in terms of vision i can see just fine without glasses and all i need a laptop for is web surfing youtube, forums and writing documents.

I want to buy a netbook but I dont know if I would use it much. What do you guys use yours for?

[chanel0102]

Well I got it as a Christmas present, but you can it at Best Buy, for sure. :)
