I really like the new 1201N I purchased, it had all the features I was personally looking for (affordable small netbook with an HDMI out) for the right price.
PROs- HDMI out, windows 7 32bit instead of starter, Graphics and Processor.
CONs- I have the black one, so it does get fingerprints, tends to run hot, have had it shut off on my a couple times in mid program.
Bottom line- I'd recommend this as a pretty good purchase, the reported shut down problems by others do make me nervous and I'd also advise to get silver if you can. But all in all, if you're looking for a smaller netbook with HDMI, I don't know of one better out there currently.

I bought this and since I know that I am not the typical user, I immediately doubled the RAM and HDD storage.
With 4GB RAM and 500GB 7200rpm HDD, this is an excellent little computer.
I have been a devoted Mac and Linux user for years... but this device almost allows me to tolerate Windows 7.
If there is anything I could possibly improve, it would be that it comes pre-installed with Ubuntu.
But, this has nothing to do with the hardware itself, which I have no complaints about.
Oh and I have seen some other reviews about not liking the touchpad... I really like it and think it not only works well, it looks really cool.
Feel free to ask me anything you are curious about.

I've had this Asus laptop for a few weeks now and am (for the most part) very impressed with it. Yes, it would be nice to have an optical drive, but I know that would make it a larger machine. This little thing packs a lot of punch! Windows 7 works flawlessly on it. I also like the touchpad because you can zoom and page up/down with it.
I just have two complaints: 1) Battery life-Asus claims "up to" 5 hours of battery life. Their manual suggests letting the battery go thru some charge/discharge cycles to extend battery power. I'm lucky to get 4 hours of battery life, and that's on their most extreme "power saving" settings. 2)If you are like me and hate fingerprints and dust on your laptop, DO NOT get the black color! As soon as I took it out of the box, I could see dust particles attaching to the nice shiney black surface...yuck! I'm constantly wiping this thing down. I'm not sure why so many manufacturers make a majority of their laptops in gloss black.

Perfect balance portability price and quality... that said, Amazon customer service stinks. The power supply stopped working, and to save time i was not going to claim guarantee and just quickly buy a new one. Well surprise these laptops come with a model specific power supply that I can not find on the Amazon site. So for the first time in 6 years of being an excellent customer I ask for help with customer service and all the can do is give me automated replies and ignore me...
Anyway, I have a 12 inch brick and am desperately looking how to solve this problem.
Amazon, nice place to shop but forget any customer service.

I am very pleased with the ASUS Eee 1201N I purchased. It is compact enough to carry in a messenger bag yet, powerful enough to hand just about any application no requiring external media (CD/DVD). The screen resolution and color production is top notch. It has out performed more than I bargained it would.
I have never gotten 5 hours out of the battery life. I assume the battery life would actually last 5 hours if the netbook was sitting, doing nothing, in screensaver mode, etc. It does run hot. I read is the new NVidia ION chipset creating the hot temperatures.
