fangface where is that deal happening?

Hi,
The deal is happening at Bangalore, only through a dealer called Digitechh. They have 3-4 outlets across bangalore.

Anyway, picked up the N110 from them yesterday. Sealed boxed piece opened in front of me and they did the initial setup. HDD came with 2 partitions and 1 hidden recovery partition. Pricing was Rs.20,800 (19990+4%vat) and they threw in a a cheesy 256mb :)tongue:) mp3 player as a free gift :rofl:

Overall, i am more than pleased with the N110. I have never used the atom platform before and this little machine has more than enough power for all mundane stuff. Boots much faster to XP than an old Athlon rig i have!

Great build quality, very comfy keyboard. It has a glossy screen, but it didnt bother me at all, nice viewing angles and colors. Samsung doesnt load it up with too much crap other than a few of their apps and tools which are actually pretty decent. Overall, the N110 looks and feels like a quality product and is a very well put together little computer :D

Good for you. Am happy with it as well. I feel good that I didn't get the bulky Asus 1000HE :D

Congrats Fangface, am sure the sammy will keep up to its name

One site which has a plethora of info for sammy netbook which you should check out iis : http://www.sammynetbook.com

Unfortunately when i bought the NC10 for my wife, the N110 was priced close to 23 or 24k .Nevertheless the NC10 is performing flawlessly and my wife is more than happy.

I just hope Samsung comes out soon with an ion based netbook running a dual core atom, then i might get one for myself ... :)

Hey thanks, I have already been spending way too much time on sammynetbook.com , especially on the threads for tweaking settings to improve battery life and such :)

Why wasn't it allowed to be released. You could find them at Chromas in India. Now, I guess they have N110 which is launched to replace the NC10. I got the N110 for Rs. 21,250/-

Out of these get 1005HA but if you can find 1000HE get that.
Also check Gateway netbooks as they are now available for 22k(a month back it was 26-28K).

1005ha is the latest entry from asus as 1000he is phased out...
