I really like this product as a great sub-notebook. It’s small, light with a sleek look. In its defense, I think some people expect too much from this laptop range. But to me, I think it’s great for the money I paid for it ($550US). Its specifications are excellent compared with other sub-notebooks. All I wanted is a small machine, and there it is. All I wanted is to be able to get on the net, and there I am. All I wanted is to take my music with me and be able to play it, which again there I can thanks to its 160GB hard disc!

The cute object has a clear, bright screen, built-in webcam, microphone and speakers are also available along with two USB ports and nice large keyboard!
Also I wasn’t disappointed with battery life, I was able to type for long periods without the need to have the machine plugged in, internet usage was a little draining but I was still impressed with how long the machines battery lasted.

When it comes to the shortcomings of the product, I really can’t think of any, the product was a great price, looks good and does exactly what I need it to do.
In summary, I am not disappointed with my purchase, I got what I expected and needed and for people who want raw processing power and all those little added extras like back-lit keyboard then you need to buy an actual fully featured, fully powered laptop, which includes a fast processor and lots of RAM.
This machine is great for what it is!

I’ve had a S10 for a week or two and am having a problem with the wired networking.
Sometimes the wired interface just stops working and I have to reload the module to get it back. This can be a nightmare.

I have searched the online forums and found people were having the same problem.
I tried applying the driver fix to the Linux driver but it didn’t seem to help.

In addition, while the keyboard of S10 is indeed small, the feel when touching it, is nearly perfect, in fact I am writing my fiction book on my S10 because I can type faster on it, with less tiring than I have with my Thinkpad T61P.

Nevertheless, there are two complaints I have about the S10, the cord unplug sound is extremely loud, and the fan speed points could be better in the BIOS. Other than these two annoying problems, everything else is working smoothly. After a week of nearly constant use, I really fall in love with the S10. In fact, when I toss a 200GB hard drive in it, it might become my main computer, because it’s so portable. I may get a 6-battery, but at the same time, I’m not sure I want to carry it to the coffee shop every day.
