Hi Dennis.

I know exactly what you mean, considering even the 10.1 inch netbooks to be 
too large, I'm currently packing an 8.9 inch zoostorm machine.  Zoostorm are

a british company who specialise in laptops and netbooks for budget users 
and children, however the Freedom netbook is one of the best netbooks that 
they've produced and I'm absolutely loving it.  Firstly the best part, one 
can be had for under £200 which if one is looking for a computer shouldn't 
even stretch the most modest of purse strings.  It has an Intel Atom 1.6 GHZ

processor, 160GB hard drive, 1GB DDR2 memory, integrated 83 key keyboard, 
touchpad and sound system and wired and wireless N networking.  You also get

a web camera for video confrencing.  This is almost identicle to the N120 
netbook you have there, just at almost a third of the price less.  The only 
thing I would say though is that the battery offers up a modest 3.5 hours 
battery life, however by dimming the display and tweeking a few other 
settings, I've managed to get mine to pump out an additional 45 minutes or 
so.  If you are at all interested, I know where one can be had for 
considerably less than the retail price so please don't hesitate to email me

privately.

All the best, Ibrahim.
