I could be quite interested in the 10" if the price is right, awaiting any news on there arrival into NZ. Being they have been in the states for a couple of months you would think we could have an e.t.a

Other than the fact it's made by Acer and therefore will probably have quality issues.

Just as likely to have issues with Toshiba, and Dell. Acer are actually pretty reliable. There 5 year old+ stuff was shoddy, but their new stuff is fine.

Dell, and Toshiba on the other hand are getting worse and worse.

Asus and Samsung = still excellent

We have an Acer Travelmate bought in early 2007 that shows no sign of slowing down. We have replaced the power brick twice due to the wires being damaged when tangled in ankles.....and some of the keys are bit tired (heavily used daily for several years)....(so we plug in a USB keyboard)...but the laptop itself just keeps on going.....

It runs both Win Vista and Ubunto 10.x very well.
