eeePC

Does any of you guys own one of those new eeePCs?
I just ordered one for my parents a few minutes ago, so that we can have video conferences via skype when I'm in Japan.
The specs seem nice, especially the price.

Never heard of this. What's different about 'em?

It's small, light and not overloaded with features like other notebook computers. I hope it's as good as they say.

I know a classmate who has one.  I watched him use it a bit.  It's really small, especially the screen.  Since I didn't use it myself, though, I can't really comment on anything else about it...

I got a mail that it will be delivered on April 30th. I hope it comes in time. I'll have to explain all the functions to my mom before we move to Japan.
