Here's an interesting follow on their initially very enthusiastic reviews of the Asus EEE PC:

And another follow up:

There are some issues: Small display size, WiFi flakiness, OS Stability and poor battery endurance (still drains too much power even while sleeping). Too bad b/c it would have been a great little laptop stand in if they'd kept it to it's original announced price and if these issues get ironed out.
