The Acer ONE Thread

I'm quite tempted by one of these. Are people going for the SD card over the HDD? 120GB HDD is only £10 more than an 8GB card.

It's not just an SD card, it's also a Solid State Drive.

But yes, I'm going for the SSD over the HDD personally, even though the HDD version is 15x the capacity.
 
Yeah, Ive got a 8GB SD card waiting for it... 17.99 for a sandisk one

All the space I will need, any extra will just be other memory cards and usb sticks..
 
Oh crap... :(

Pre-order. | Due for release on 07/08/2008
The place I preordered has gone from the 25th July to this now :(

I preordered at £199, so it's £40 more if I pick it up in store somewhere.

:-/
 
This collect in store thing from the purple shirt place, can I go pick it up straight away, it just says till thursday, but then I read it says please allow an hour till pick up, so I can go today still :D
 
I think you will see a few delays, as Acer told me the purple shirt store has the exclusive release in the UK.

That's really annoying.

Their nearest store is 40-50 minutes away from here, and I was there yesterday :-/

Didn't think of going into their store :(
 
They didnt actually have any to collect until today.
I drove 40 mins to get mine as local store had none.

You just reserve online then get it after an hour, but its never there ready so they have to go and get it.
I got a laptop mouse too.

That looks very nice.

Whats your opinion of it so far?

What are the boot times like? Supplied programs okay?

Windows/Linux?
 
Very shiny, the top looks nice, but the bezel makes it look a bit cheap & tacky. Maybe it looks better in the flesh.
what's the specs on these for £250? on the website it just throws me to a list of laptops when I click for more info.
 
First impressions, its very good, far more usable than I expected.
Keyboard is a good size and easy to type. I have had some issues installing some apps (just doing the recovery cd thing :) )

Running the standard Linux OS, I deffo recomend one.

Boot speed is very good, I video'd the first turn on, so will post that later.
 
Sweeet, cant wait for mine!

Wonder if you guys can help here, I have reserved my One, but now I have gone onto the website and checked stock again and there none, its saying that due to high demands, its not available anymore. Is my reserved one still Ok ?
