Elara are now €363 to €379 plus delivery (depending on what colour you want). I'd only use Pixmania if they were 30% cheaper than the rest - not worth the hassle with their Customer Service for a small saving. What mice are people using with their NC10? I'm looking at the Logitech V450 or V470.DVD.co.uk have the V450 for GBP18+ delivery - it's GBP 30-35 on most sites.

UK VAT. again, show me. Targa don't have a product. what Targa have is a re-badged MSI Wind and to make it more attactive they have to dangle carrots for people to buy them because they have nothing to offer that you can't get somewhere else (i.e. online) for less money. it's got nothing to do with kudos, what it has to do with is the NC10 being a better netbook than ANYTHING else on the market based on every single online review that there has been of the thing. now you're just being stupid as well as totally wrong. if you are going to post retarded comments like that at least try and be right about their contents. the NC10 with HSDPA isn't going to be released until March 09 as has already been discussed here by people who actually have a clue what they are talking about. i'm sorry, but do you have something wrong with you, what sort of idiotic statement is that supposed to be? why don't you just tell people not to wave 400€ about when they're walking the street? if you want to honestly discuss the merits and possible pitfalls of the nc10 then go right ahead, but DO NOT come on here bull$hitting and expect to get away with it.

It really depends on what you're looking for. I don't think the NC20 is aimed at the same market as the NC10 at all tbh.......
AlmightyCushion wrote: » According to that link it's actually going with a 1.3Ghz atom over the 1.8Ghz via they were originally rumoured to be. That's just daft. They should stick with the 1.6Ghz atom or the via.

Powering the system, which at 12.1in is clearly too large to be considered a netbook, is a 1.3GHz Atom processor, not VIA has had been doubtfully speculated. That confusion, though, is helpfully explained by the NC20's use of a VIA VX800 chipset, rather than Intel's 945GSE, although the benefits or lack thereof of the change aren't particularly clear.
