HP Mini by Studio Tord Boontje
RRP: $799.00
3.75
Those of you with an eye for style will want to check out HP's Mini by Studio Tord Boontje. It features a very nice 3D pattern of flora and endangered animals on its lid, while on the inside it has all the components of a basic netbook. There couldn't be more of a contrast between the bog-standard netbook specifications and the extravagant styling, but there's no law that states simple netbooks can't look good, and the Mini by Studio Tord Boomtje definitely does look good!

HP Mini 311 netbook
RRP: $899.00
4.00
A big screen, fast graphics and good hard drive performance are just some of the things to like about HP's first Windows 7-based netbook. It's a great unit for anyone who wants to view high-definition video content while on the go and it's comfortable enough to use for extended periods.

MSI Wind 12 U200
RRP: $999.00
4.25
The MSI Wind 12 U200 is bigger and more powerful than a typical netbook, yet it's still small and easy to travel with. We love its keyboard, its battery life is good and its CPU is relatively powerful. Our main complaint is that it's a top-heavy unit, so firm knocks can make it topple backwards, especially when using it on your lap.

Sony VAIO W (VPCW115XGP)
RRP: $999.00
3.00
We love the screen on the Sony VAIO W and think it's a good netbook overall. However, it needs more RAM and better features to make it worth the high asking price.

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 netbook
RRP: $649.00
3.25
Physically, the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 is a run-of-the-mill netbook without anything to make it stand out from other mini-notebooks on the Australian market. However, it includes a fine implementation of Splashtop, which allows you to use the netbook for Web browsing and other basic tasks without booting into Windows.

MSI X-Slim X600 notebook
RRP: $1799.00
3.25
The MSI X-Slim X600 is a big but light notebook with a thin frame. It's a good all-round notebook with decent specifications, but its touchpad is in a position that can hamper typing.

HP Pavilion dv2-1132AX
RRP: $1299.00
3.75
If netbooks are too small for you and regular 15in laptops are way too big, then the HP Pavilion dv2-1132AX could be just what you're looking for. It runs an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Neo CPU, has an HDMI port, and is perfect for office work as well as watching videos and editing photos.

BenQ Joybook Lite U121 Eco
RRP: $899.00
3.50
The Joybook Lite U121 Eco is a good option for anyone who wants a big netbook with long battery life. It has an 11.6in screen and a mostly full-sized keyboard, and a 6-cell battery. However, its build quality could be better and we'd like BenQ to include options for a 3G module and a solid state drive.

Viewsonic VNB101
RRP: $699.00
3.25
If you're looking for a thin and light netbook, ViewSonic's 1.1kg VNB101 does have some merit, but it also has a few drawbacks. You only get two USB 2.0 ports, its SD card slot is located in an awkward position, and its battery life was short of two hours in our tests. It does look decent, though, and it comes with a version of the Linpus Lite operating system pre-installed, in addition to Windows XP.

Kogan Technologies Agora Netbook Pro
RRP: $439.00
3.50
Despite its flaws, the Kogan Agora Netbook Pro is a reasonable performer for the asking price. If you can get to grips with the open source OS (or have a spare Windows licence handy), it will satisfy as a secondary notebook.

MSI Wind U115
RRP: $999.00
4.00
For travellers — or anyone who wants to work for long periods of time away from a power outlet — the MSI Wind U115 is perfect. Its battery life is the longest we've seen in an Intel Atom-based netbook, lasting well over five hours. We also like the inclusion of an SSD drive, but we wish it had a larger storage capacity.

Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T
RRP: $1699.00
4.00
This ultraportable Acer notebook should offer more than enough power, as long as you aren't planning to play recent games or edit videos, and it has an excellent collection of features (including 802.11n Wi-Fi). For students or business users who don't want to shell out for a more powerful ultraportable laptop but want something that's more feature-packed than a netbook, we think it's perfect.

Dell Inspiron Mini 10
RRP: TBA
3.75
The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 is a great netbook, especially if you want a high resolution, a large amount of storage space and the convenience of an HDMI output. It's let down by the poor digital TV software, slow performance and the awkward touchpad. We also liked the super cool lid artwork!

HP Mini 110 (NB-1006TU_09)
RRP: $699.00
4.00
The HP mini 110 (NB-1006TU_09) is worth considering if you're after a very portable and relatively easy to use netbook; it looks good, too. You can also save some money by opting for the Linux version, which costs $499 and has a 16GB solid-state drive instead of a 160GB hard drive.

Lenovo IdeaPad S10e
RRP: $649.00
4.25
Despite its reduced size and resolution, the Lenovo IdeaPad S10e is one of the best netbooks on the market. It's very well built, it has an expansion slot and its battery lasts a long time. Its keyboard is hard to get used to, but some of the people we showed it to loved it.
