o,, well ,how to say..it can run the ordinary programmes very well… it's good to use it to surf internet. but if u want to play some new 3D games, it's a bit…u know.. it can't be the one that u want it to do anything 'huge'. i could say..so i got two notebooks, it's the second one. if i want do some thing simple.. i would use it. it's easy and relax to use… the design is perfect…. especially the keyboard..its very comfortable to use……as it says on the website it is full-size..
if u don't want it in such a hurry.. i suggest u should wait for couple days..

oh,by the way, one of my chinese friends told me it sells very well in china…..so maybe the company set the main selling region in china? but they would flood our market later, when they build enough and ship to us… waiting is really annoying……
any way i don't think Asus e-pc is better than this one…

thanks, bb. let me ask, does it run as hot as engadget claims?

if this is the machine and feature set you really want, i call for patience–especially since the type A customers all cancelled their orders when the news first came out. i also ordered my s10 on 8/19, and had an original ship date of 9/23. i, too, am very disappointed in the delays, but my new date is NOT november 19, as everyone had warned it would be, but october 21. i fully believe that i (and everybody else!) may receive it even sooner than that. the lenovo forums have an ideapad s10 order & delivery thread that i suggest you read. those estimated ship dates are conservative, frustratingly and confusingly so. they're only a guess, and they aren't updated to reflect changing realities. the situation is annoying and lenovo hasn't lived up to their reputation, but having seen most of the competitors, i can't see myself settling for an asus or msi. they just feel too cheap. i considered going for a dell, but i've had too many problems with my current latitude to give them any more money.

Good choice. The only area I have found the 100)H to be even slightly deficient to the Aspire One (or HP Mini-Note) is the keyboard – right shift key and tactile feedback. All other features are at least as good or better than the competitors' offerings. You get bluetooth, Super Hybrid Engine (performance/battery modes), a great touchpad (probably the best of the netooks), user configurable fast change keys, wireless “N”, and a real 6 cell battery (availabe now!) that does not stick out the back.

Don't forget, Asus has had some time to work out many of the bugs of these little netbooks. Companies like Dell and Lenovo (both of which I use for laptop business purposes) are a bit late to the table and have nothing much new to offer. Heck, most (all?) can'it even equip their uinits with 6 cell batteries yet! A netbook is supposed to be portable. IMO bettery life is one of the most important features of these machines.

Enjoy!

[...] davvero una bella notizia se solo non fossimo venuti a sapere da Brad Linder, di Liliputing.com, che tutti coloro che hanno già effettuato un preordine del Lenovo visualizzano il 18 Novembre [...]

Thanks for the update folks. I also ordered on 8/19 with a supposed ship date of 9/23 (today). Last week I jumped on a chance to buy EEE 1000H 160GB version for $479 at ZZF and it arrived the next day despite the 3-day shipping. Talk about a huge contrast to the month — months! — long wait for the S10. Now I just gotta remember to cancel my order.
