>Alternate, K&M Elektronik and notebooksbilliger.de ... thanks, this was just what i was looking for.

You might >share your criteria and the results of your comparison -- I at least would >be interested in that. my requirements are quite similar to yours, but with weight, and battery life being at the top of the list, noise is not as critical. After reading over the old subnotebook threads on this list and spending some hours yesterday looking at stuff online I am kind of underwhelmed by the current selections and prices. The closest I see to what I am looking for is probably the 901 eee pc, although after reading Preben's comment I think I want to go to a shop to compare in person the keyboard issue. I find it kind of strange the HDD options seem to jump from 12 to 160 GB with nothing in between. Its like everyone just gave up on the SSDs for now. There is no way I need more than ~60, and 30 would probably be fine. It also seems like once you go to the 10.2" size a lot of the netbooks have almost exactly the same specs; asus, lenovo, msi, etc, atleast at the ~300 euro price range, so really one needs to physically compare them, imo. In summary, there seems to be less possibility than I hoped of getting exactly what I want. I will probably wait a while before buying anything. Also this site was mentioned on of the other threads and is pretty informative: www.umpcportal.com cheers, adam. >
