Depend what for u need them. There are many reviews of those "netbooks" on the inet. Acer, Asus, Samsung...

If u are going to buy one of those, then wait for the eeePC 1000 (H/HA/HD) or samsung NC10.

They are not "too small" and really not big. The screen is 10", battery life is more then 4-5h, and the keyboard is user friendly. Non of them has a optical drive. The memory depends. By eeePC u can choose between HDD or SSD (40Gb)and eeePC batery last up to 7.8h. The NC10 has 160Gb HDD...RAM is up to 2GB. Samsung has no Bluetooth....

good luck...
