2GHz 2GB
Put a 2GHz Atom in it and add another 1GB of RAM and it would be a great netbook. Unfortunately Intel don't allow that do they. Sigh.

2GB is OK
The 1GB can be replaced with a 2GB module.
Not certain but out of the box 2GB may be an option.

Still no HSDPA?
I know they can do it since there's a HSDPA version of the NC10 available from a few online stored like Dabs.

11 inch display?
10 inch displays should be the standard for netbooks.
Any larger and we have a laptop.
The ASUS 1005HA may be small… really small but do not underestimate the power of 802.11G, 2 logical CPU’s and Windows XP Home in a 1.1Kg package!
I even figured out how to overclock my netbook.
I ran some benchmarks and give more detail in this review: http://bit.ly/44CHFm

Windows 7
Is this going to be available in the UK with Windows 7 when it's out? I know they're holding off release in the US - I just hope we get it too.

Silver nano?
Does this have a silver impregnated keyboard like the NC10 or have they dropped that now?

Windows 7
Any news on Win7 version as per Mattallyc request?
Also does it have any competitors yet ie any other netbook with nvida or other graphics chip ?
