Just an update… we went with this one.

Yesterday we were fighting the crowds at our local Circuit City trying to get some deals since they are going out of business and found it for $315. So now I am typing on it and cruising the internet with it. It had pretty much everything I wanted in a net book. The keyboard is good. It has enough usb ports, it has a webcam and mic, etc. The only drawback is that it has a 3 cell and not a 6 cell battery, so we may have to upgrade down the road. I will most definitely be upgrading the RAM to 2 gigs.
