recommendation for light micro laptop?
hi - bit stumped. need to find something that can be used with a fairly conventional keyboard (could be a fold out) to transcribe documents, in a word processor that has the capability to do a bit more than notepad (i.e. searching for text, say) and then be uploaded into word or wordperfect.
got to be light... for lugging around easily. and capable of being used for typing in a lot of text in say, a library. I was thinking of something that perhaps didnt have a harddrive so was easy to turn on quickly.. but not sure what anything is called these days... and where to search. Hoping that something will also be "good value" too in comparison to cheap laptops...! Any thoughts...? |

What about an Asus eeePC ? Sounds like it could fit your needs

ah. good. thats one of the few things I came across. will look further.
what about "PDAs" with separate folding keyboard - does anyone think that would be up to the job? |

You'd be better getting a decent smart phone from the likes of Samsung, Apple, Nokia (E71 springs to mind) or new Blackberry Storm.
