There are three American versions of the Asus 1005HA:
- Best Buy offers the 1005HA-B for $ 299 (plus VAT). It has the N270 (1.6 GHz 533FSB) CPU, glossy widescreen
display, 3-Cell 23Wh Li-ion battery (4 hours) and a 1.3 MP webcam. Excluded are the Bluetooth module, 10 GB of online storage Eee, netbook, and sleeves. Obviously the "Basic" model. I got this demo unit at Best Buy, June 27 and IMO, you waive all a lot for the ~ $ 60 savings on the "P" model. Not to mention that, ASUS will sell it already had a free 3 or 6-cell Li-ion. - The V-1005HA is in the middle of the group and the only one with a matte screen. Those who often work outside or despise considerations appreciate the matted screen. It also has a processor N270, 6-cell 48Wh Li-ion battery (8.5 hours), 0.3MP webcam (according to Amazon, but it's actually 1.3MP May), no Bluetooth, and new netbook sleeve.
- (So in summary or is this shell?) The 1005HA-P offers a faster CPU N280, glossy widescreen display, 1.3 MP Webcam, 6-Cell 63Wh Li-ion with huge 10.5 hours of autonomy , Bluetooth v2.1 and a black netbook sleeve. Realistic battery values between 8.5 9am. battery life when you do with WiFi and email processing / word / YouTube / Web-surfing.
The bright LED display offers excellent color and contrast for outdoor use properly. I was also pleasantly surprised by the excellent horizontal viewing angles. Note that you could never in a room full of light or go outside to get the annoying screen glare. I used to me on a sunny day, and the screen is still readable. In fact, it was much more detailed than the matte screen on my Dell D600.
The three systems using the digital microphone array, which consists of two powerful microphones. Ambient background noise and echo reduction for clear voice. Also included with DirectSound (max. 60 °), then you'll capture a better voice quality. I tested the microphone with Skype, and it is loud and clear when we set well with Realtek HD Audio Manager. All models are also WiFi 802.11 b / g / n adapter and 160 GB HDD 5400 rpm My 1005HA-P contains a HTS543216L9SA00 Hitachi hard drive, and Atheros AR9285 WiFi card. Atheros chipsets are known for excellent selection and are generally less likely to break the connection. I want to emphasize that the AR9285 is only capable of 150Mbps.
The three variants of the ship 1005HA with 1 GB of DDR2 800MHz memory. The good news is that you remove the memory of the lower chassis and swap it out for 2 GB DDR2 200-pin SODIMM in less than 2 minutes. Amazon offers the Crucial 667 & 800 MHz modules for under $ 27th I installed a Crucial 800MHz Module (CT25664AC800) because it provides more space and freedom to leave his position at a lower FSB, if necessary. The 667-Clock module should be past its rated speed, but if your engine does not work, then it could lead to instability. I recommend making a Prime95 "Blend" torture test for 12-24 hours, your system is stable. The Eee Super Hybrid Engine utility allows users to overclock or underclock your Eee PC for better performance or to create better battery life, depending on their immediate needs. In the Super Performance mode CPU-Z shows the bus speed increases up to 169.9MHz, which translates to about 1.7 GHz. One way to quickly change modes is the key Fn + spacebar.
A small annoyance that the ad will not tilt back as far as some love. The case is a shiny fingerprint magnet. Some other things I want to emphasize is that you push the micro-size right angle end of the adapter until it snaps into place or does not do the battery to charge. In addition, food can get very hot when it is active, the battery, the Asus clearly mentioned in the manual loading and should not be alarmed by the heat. The final Quirk is that the hard disk is partitioned into two 80GB (formatted) partitions. Fortunately, we can solve a free utility using EASEUS Partition Master Home.
Overall, I am extremely happy with the P-1005HA satisfactory and it is without doubt the finest 10 "Netbook on the market. Please note that if you are a white / pink, you're on the" expectation " or "limited models. Asus has already had two above-mentioned color in Europe and Asia, so hopefully by the end of 2009, we will receive an option on the "P" model.
