Conclusion

At first glance, the new ASUS Eee PC 1008HA Seashell might not seem like an extraordinary netbook. Indeed, with so many netbooks using the same processor, integrated graphics, and standard 10-inch display, there isn’t much on paper to make this netbook stand out in a crowd.

Still, what the 1008HA lacks in performance, it makes up for in finishing touches. The thin and light design, extreme battery life, and nearly full size keyboard make the Seashell Eee PC a very attractive travel laptop. If you can overlook the integrated battery and weak performance of the proprietary VGA connection the 1008HA is every bit as good or perhaps even better than the competition.
Pros:

* Thin and light
* Excellent battery life
* Cool built-in VGA adapter

Cons:

* Integrated battery
* Weak VGA output performance
* Bad touchpad buttons
