Notebook Review says:

Overall it is a pleasure to be one of the first to own the ASUS V1JP in North America. This laptop has a lot to offer in terms of performance, quality, features and decent battery life. I would recommend this laptop to business users looking for performance, graphic designing, security features, flexibility and a docking station. This laptop is my first laptop, and it is a pleasure to own the ASUS V1JP.

Pros:

* Screen (Great viewing angles, and brightness)
* Graphics (Decent performance for the X1700)
* Performance (Overall performance is just like my desktop except the graphics)
* Battery Life (Decent battery life, achieving 3 hours maximum)
* Multi-bay (A feature in which you can add a second hard drive and or battery)
* Docking Station (It has the ability for a docking station for those who need one)
* Fingerprint Reader (A great tool to help protect your files)
* Touchpad (Textured feel, worked well right away, with vertical and horizontal scroll)
* Keyboard (A pleasure to type on, little to no flex, spill proof)
* Build Quality (Good build quality all around except for the lid)
* Optical Drive (Quiet and works well, no problem reading my CDs or DVDs)
* Hard Drive (Seagate Momentus, quiet, cool and efficient)

Cons:

* Price (I would have at least wanted 2GB of Ram at this price point)
* Heat (The right side of the laptop gets very warm and hot)
* Noise (The laptop has fan noise which is audible when doing medium and heavy tasks)
* Lid (The quality of the lid, leaves more to be desired since it flexes)
* Weight (6.5lbs, you’ll feel it when traveling, especially with the power brick and cords)
* Hibernate (You have to press the Power Button in order to resume from Hibernation)
* Vent (The vent is unfortunately on the right side and blows hot air onto the mouse hand)
* Speakers (Low volume, little sounds options, good headphone quality)
