It’s quite clear that the netbook market is here to stay and the manufacturers will constantly be improving on their products to better compete against one another. Trying to make a buck selling netbooks is arguably more difficult than doing the sam...
Abstract: The first time people laid eyes on the Asus Eee PC 1000HE, at CES 2009, it was clear that this was going to be the next netbook to beat. The 1000HE follows up the 10-inch 1000H, which was a major hit, as well as systems that branched off the 1000x tree...
Abstract: Though notebook manufacturers have managed to make netbooks ultra portable by shrinking down just about everything and doing away with nonessentials like optical drives, one aspect of being small has also been the Achilles Heel of the netbook: battery...
Is the Asus Eee PC 1000HE particularly revolutionary? I wouldn’t say that. It doesn’t offer the same kind of shock to the system or innovation to the market as something like the Eee PC Tablet that we saw at CES 2009 in Las Vegas. Instead, this Eee P...
Real-world battery life of over four hours; comfortable keyboard for typing
Dense battery pushes weight up to 1.45kg; no 3G modem option
The Asus Eee PC 1000HE stands out from the mini laptop crowd thanks to an impressive battery life and a decent keyboard for typing. The battery pushes up the weight to about 1.45kg, but this model is a good choice for those needing the option to work ...
Slightly faster Intel Atom CPU fails to impress; other Netbook-makers have shown more innovation.
Asus practically invented the Netbook market, and the Eee PC 1000HE is an overdue overhaul that offers a new CPU and great battery life, but misses some of the competitions bells and whistles.
All things considered, we think the Asus Eee PC 1000HE is a surefire top-seller at just under $400. Windows XP Home runs perfectly smooth in everyday scenarios, and even when pushed, this machine responded admirably. Of course, you should realize that...
The ASUS Eee PC 1000HE’s battery life is nothing short of spectacular. It also provides quite acceptable performance for most business computing tasks. I wouldn’t hand it to a heavy duty spreadsheet or database user, but for the average office...
