Power Supply? November 20, 2009 Seth Thomas (Wet World) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The first one I bought stopped charging after a week. The chrger worked but the battery wouldn't hold a charge. I contacted Asus, who informed me that the batteries were backordered and he didn't know when they would be available. I immediatley returned the computer to Amazon for an exchange.
The new one lasted about six weeks before the charger stopped working(light went out). I called Asus and arranged for a replacement charger, which is also backordered. That was a month ago.
Asus shouldn't sell product they can't support.
Edited:My bad. The unit was actually an ASUS Eee PC 1005HA-VU1X-BK 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - 8.5 Hour Battery Life. Different battery.
My opinion remains unchanged. They can't support their product.
DOA November 19, 2009 Adam C (Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ordered 2 units, one black one blue, intended as Christmas gifts for my nephew and niece. I opened up the black one first. Loaded up software, configured users, upgraded memory, web cam, touch pad, keyboard, wifi N, bluetooth, everything works just fine.
I than hooked up the blue one. DOA! Tried plugged and unplugged battery, ac power, F2...no sign of any activity other than the fan and those little blue lights. Called Asus 24/7 help support. Friendly service lady but all suggestions she gave I had already tried myself before.
Amazon makes the return and replacement policy easy but the replacement is shipped via USPS. I am crossing my fingers now because I have a few games and blu-ray moves from amazon took near a month to be delivered via USPS.
As of my view on the working black one, well I consider myself as a power user. My desktop hard drive or graphic card alone costs nearly as much as this netbook already and my current laptop is the 17" MacBook Pro. So I just can't help but feel this netbook is sluggish from time to time. The plastic casing feels cheap compares to the aluminum on MackBook Pro. The touch pad is too small for me.
Bottom line is SD video playback and Skype works just fine.
This is a great value netbook. November 19, 2009 C. Daniel (Laurel, MD) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
First let me say that I purchased this item from another website, but let me be clear in saying that Amazon is my number one site for all types of purchases.
I have had this product for about a week now and I must say it does deliver. Not only does it have great battery perfomance, it offers a sleugh of other features that just make it an overall great value. I have been pondering it over for a while and decided to go the route of the netbook, its small enough to be portable, but has the abililty to handle basic task such as word processing, web browsing and email. I purchased this item with Windows 7 and was upset with the limitation of not being able to change the wallpaper. However, ASus has a great application/utility on their site that they released that circumvents this hinderance. I have it with Win 7 Starter, 1GB of Ram (which I upgraded to 2 GB - highly recommended) 250 GB HDD (with 500GB of Internet Storage, graciously provided by Asus), comes with an inner sleeve (I recommended getting a carry case), built in webcam and mic. It also has 3 USB ports, bluetooth, 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN, memory card reader and best of all 10.5hours of battery life, that you cannot beat.
Overall, for the cost and value plus the things you get from this machine, it is definately worth the purchase in my opinion.
You might be wondering why I gave it 4 stars after all the praise. Well Win 7 Starter for one, that is mainly M$ fault for even release a crippled version of windows 7, shame on them. And while the machine perfoms well for a netbook, dont expect to be doing lots of task at once. When you are use to fast desktop PCs it can be hard to take a step backwards.
Major problems with sleep mode November 17, 2009 Lostchild (nyc) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I received this computer only yesterday. Today I put the computer into sleep mode. When I tried to wake it back up I got a black screen. Turned the power off and restarted, took the battery out, tried FN+F1, tried everything, and I still have a black screen.
Now I have to send it back to Asus for repairs on only the 2nd day.
There's something wrong with this computer running Windows 7. I would avoid it.
Don't Believe IT!!!! November 16, 2009 Valerie Simon (florida islands) 7 out of 13 found this review helpful
Don't believe those reviewers who just got their product two days ago and think its great!
My power cord went out within the first 3 weeks of use. Asus said they'd send a replacement and I should get it in 3 business days. Well, more than two weeks later I got it! The replacement worked fine for about 10 days and IT went out too! Called Asus again and got the same story. Well, that was the 27th of October. On November 13th I called and was told they just received the return request on November 11th. When I explained they had only given me 24 hours to fax the RMA forms back and that was on the 27th I was told they were behind. I just received an email saying they are OUT OF STOCK on the replacement cords and won't get new ones until December!!!!
So far I've been out of the computer I purchased for 6-7 weeks of the 10 weeks I've owned it! And, it will be at least another 3-4 weeks until its operational again!
I only wish I had bought it from a company as reputable as Amazon! (Beware of zipzoomfly!) When I told Asus I wanted a refund I was told to contact the reseller, the reseller says to contact the manufacturer. Neither want to be responsible.
Really! Keep looking! You can find a netbook out there just as nice for about the same price. It doesn't matter how much you spend if it doesn't work it doesn't work!
