First Look: the £170 CNM Minibook in Computer Shopper

"CNM's Minibook is undoubtedly cheap and compact, but Asus' original Eee PC 701 is now available from for around £17 less. If you have a little more money to spare, Acer's superior Aspire one costs around £50 more."

Elonex ONEt in Computer Active

"Good points

  • Neat and small
  • Surprisingly good programs supplied
  • Wireless network access built in
  • Three-hour battery life

Bad points

  • Flash video playback problems
  • Fast typists will be slowed down

Overall A simple but effective sub-notebook that is cheaper than most of the competition."


Elonex ONEt in IT Reviews

"Elonex's ONEt uses Linux to provide a lot of functionality in an inexpensive box, and features like WiFi Internet and storage expansion through SD cards make it a useful machine to carry with you. There's not much memory in the basic machine, though, and it could be quicker, but it deserves to sell well into education and to those who mainly want Internet browsing. It proves that both the form factor and price point are right."

"Score: 7.8:

This could be a blogger's best friend, so long as you don't need robust image-editing software and aren't afraid of ponying up for a USB keyboard too."


Mini-Review: 3K RazorBook 400 Mini-Notebook in laptopmag.com

"RazorBook 400 Verdict
So far, this mini-notebook seems to have more style than substance. The Linux OS is confusing and is nearly impossible to customize, and the inability to stream video out of the box is a big strike against. At this point, we’re unconvinced that the RazorBook 400 is a better choice than the Eee PC 4G Xandros version."
