In my household, we have two ASUS Eee PC's. I've used one of them daily for two years (I'm using it right now to write this post), and have had no trouble with it.

I considered other netbooks before I bought the first Eee, and then again over the summer when I bought the second one, but the Eee PC's were best for my needs both times. I find the keyboard particularly usable, and prefer trackpad buttons that are below the trackpad. Many netbooks have basically the same configuration in terms of processor speed, screen resolution, etc. because they use the same chipset, so I find that it winds up coming down to other factors like the keyboard, trackpad, battery life, and my confidence in the company making the product.

I don't use netbooks to read e-books, though, so I cannot comment on their suitability for that purpose.
