Example - Asus Eee PC 1015PEM 10.1" LED Netbook - Atom N550 1.50 GHz

Been trying to buy a netbook with a dual core processor but nothing seems to be available - anybody know why this is please?

hp (own site) are doing a deal where you can get the (admittedly older) HP Pavilion dm1-1102sa for £299. It has a celeron dual core and 11.6 inch screen and 2gigs of ram etc

Might be worth looking into at the very least

£400+ - bit more than I wanted to pay!

Asus 1215N. even more expensive!

Get a Acer CULV with HD4330. Cheaper, faster, and easier to use.

...then again, the ASUS 1015PEM is imminent - might fit the bill ?

Ahh - SEE ABOVE - that's what my question is about - are they (ASUS 1015PEM) not out yet then?

Nearly, I believe - reviews are around, but not yet seen one in the wild - apparently the purple shirt peeps are getting them.....
