Hi Jillian.
If your on Skype any time today, I can answer all your questions and spend some
time talking through the options with you. I've had to make purchasing
decisions on netbooks, external drives and headsets before, and have tried out
several products in my quest to find the best for my needs, plus I am a mobile
broadband user.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi.
Am writing this all in 1 message, as it's easier and doesn't clutter up mail
boxes, but you can break it down or answer each question as you see fit.
Firstly, cordless headset recommendations. I'm after a set which has proper
headphones, rather than in-ear speakers. I tried looking on the Plantronics
site, but I had problems on there. I've heard there's a good set on skype.com
but am wondering what other good sets are out there. Using it for Skype and
other chat sites. Prefer usb, but will take analogue too.
Next, external cd/dvd drives. Looking for a drive to connect to a netbook,
for installing programs and ripping music. If writer drives are not much more,
than will just go for that option. thoughts welcome. I'd imagine they're all
usb these days.
Now onto the netbook itself. I'm after 1 with windows 7. wondering whether 1
gb ram will be enough with os, access tech plus skype or internet open. Seems
that it has been so far. will the atom processors be able to cope with that
too. Also wondering what the difference is between 7 starter and other
versions, please.
Lastly, mobile solutions. I've no idea what to do about mobile internet. I've
seen that BT have a mobile dongle. wonder if anyone's used it and what it's
like. I get the impression generally that dongles aren't great, but seeing as
I've an old mobile, (6600), I don't think using it as a modem is the answer,
but I stand corrected if I'm wrong. all help on this 1 certainly appreciated.
thanks for reading such a long message.
Jill.
