 | Take the Internet to more places with the long battery life and flexibility of a compact, lightweight netbook powered by the incredibly small, amazingly smart Intel Atom processor. It features a design structure that packs in 47 million transistors into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just 2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.66 GHz Atom N280 processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a 512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).
 | A Multi-Gesture Touchpad allows you to pinch, flick and swirl your fingers across the touchpad for more natural photo and video viewing as well as intuitive navigation of websites. The Multi-Gesture Touchpad enables you to scroll, zoom in and out and flip through web pages, photos, spreadsheets and more. The TouchPad can also be disabled with a one-touch button, eliminating accidental cursor movement with palms and wrists when using an external mouse. |
The Acer Aspire One AOD250 has been designed to be even more streamlined than its predecessors--whittling down the depth to just one inch thin and shaving the weight down to just under 2.8 pounds. The sleek aerodynamic design includes elegant touches such as the color-rich chassis along with the metallic hinge with a colored accent. Finally, it features a soft-touch palm rest to increase typing comfort.

 android not all that February 15, 2010

I purchased the Acer Netbook because of the choice of having a non-microsoft web browser. Unfortunately android is often not fast at all, unless the speed at which it can bring up a gray screen is something you want. Really disappointed in having to depend on microsoft again, since microsoft is now the benchmark all software has to work down to. I expected someone, anyone, to do better. But apparently, android can't cut it.
Not a bad netbook at all February 13, 2010

So I chose this netbook after reviewing a few different computers with comparable specs and pricing, but what made me choose this model is the same thing that's my favorite feature: it dual-boots XP and Android! The XP is fully functional and fine as far as Windows OSes go, but the Android is where it's at. It boots up fast, connects me to my email and web browser nice and fast, it features a clean user interface and it's easy to use. The only thing I've noticed that I don't like is that I haven't figured out how to import music into Android's music player, but I just switch over to XP and listen to music on iTunes when the fancy takes me. Overall, it's a nice little machine, the battery life is good, not quite 9 hours, but still very solid. I would recommend this guy to anyone interested in a portable yet fully functional road-warrior type netbook. Oh, one other thing: the battery protrudes from the body of the computer, which I don't mind personally (I use it as a handle) but some people might find off-putting.
 Fun and useful! February 7, 2010

I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself. I have been thrilled with it since I got it. The battery life is great and it is sooo portable. I picked up a Neoprene case for it and I can just grab it and go. I use it mostly for web surfing and playing my MP3 collection through my surround system. I drag it to bed with me when my wife conks out early and play Pogo games. It fits on my nightstand without taking it over. For those type of uses it is great! It might drag a little if you are trying to use it to build or run huge databases but why would you even try on a size screen like this. I have my desktop and my 17" screen dual-core laptop for that. This is my fun netbook! Its name is Elroy.
This netbook rocks! February 3, 2010

Does exactly what it's supposed to. It's not a super computer. I hate reading netbook reviews by people expecting the world out of a netbook. Battery life is awesome, performance is exactly what I hoped for. If you are looking for a gaming computer or just a super fast portable, this isn't for you. However, if you just want portability with a good sized hard drive and great battery performance, this one's for you. Booting up in ANDROID is super fast, a matter of seconds and you are off surfing the web.
Nice little device January 9, 2010

I was pleasantly surprised about the Android part of the computer after reading various reviews. I have had no glitches with it to date, after using it for over a week now anyway. It boots up fast, gets online fast and can get e-mail fast.
There is a website, like another reviewer wrote, that is dedicated to the Android netbook market. They have almost 90 Apps now, and all are FREE as of now. The website is [...]. I have downloaded several already. The language app works much better than I expected, it gives fairly accurate translations. There are a couple I downloaded that did not work right, however, but all the other did. The secret to getting the apps is to use the built in browser, NOT firefox to download the apps. You have to press the right mouse button (right side of the acer single button) to be able to select "go" to type in the address.
The XP part works as expected, better than any other windows I have tried. I have not tried 7 yet though.
I love the compact Acer, I do not like large laptops after owning 2 of these now (dropped the first on a tiled cement floor). It is very light with extremely long battery life.
I would suggest an external dvd drive for loading certain programs, such as your printer software among others. Other than that it is a great little computer.
