Acer AOD250-1070 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life Review

I’ve been considering buying a netbook for several weeks. I’ve read all the reviews, and came to the conclusion that Acer was probably the best brand for the price. But I wasn’t sold on the Windows 7 Starter OS. Then I found this model with the 6 cell battery and the XP operating system. I bought it today with expected arrival on Wednesday. I’ll update my review after I receive the product and have a chance to put it through its paces. Hope I’ll be able to maintain the 5 Star rating like the other reviewers.

Update
I’d been trying to talk my self out of this purchase but finally decided to take the plunge when I saw the red color go on sale for 0. Product was delivered right on time. I was excited to get it set up so we could use it in the family room to check email and to browse the net when TV got boring. The trouble started when I had difficultly connecting to my home network. Not a problem, I should be able to contact Acer customer service for help, right? Wrong. They were entirely unhelpful. Thankfully I was able to contact a friend who was able to resolve the problem over the phone for me.

I like the product and feel that I made a wise purchasing decision. But I was sorely tempted to return the netbook for a refund after my experience with Acer customer service. Hopefully I won’t need to contact them again.

I’d recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a notebook. It is stylish, very light, and surprisingly quick. And the red color is nice. Since I wanted a notebook with XP rather than Win7, this fit the bill nicely. As always, Amazon has an incredible selection and provided quick shipping.
