"This is NOT a full-featured Asus eee 1000HE. Look up the specs on the web. The "real" 1000HE has an N280 processor and the fantastic 9.5 hr battery.
I suppose this cut-down version was made just for BB."
We saw that quote, too. The one at BB is the model 1000HEB and it only has a 3 - 5 hour battery life. It looks just like the 1000HE, so if you want physically compare netbooks, that's a good place to do it. We ordered mine online (I think her ordered it from Amazon). It was actually a little more expensive (maybe, $20-30 more) and you have to pay shipping if you want to get it quickly, but you can get the real 1000HE.
