"This is NOT ment to be a replacement for a normal Laptop or Desktop PC. This product is aimed at people that wish to have the capabilities of a laptop in a compact and minimal design. The Eee PC is ideal for people that want ultra-portability without sacrificing power. It is intended for internet browsing, school work, and simple entertainment. That is why it has the small screen size and the equally small pricetag."

"I got this MP3 about a month ago, and I have yet to second-guess my decision of buying it. I primarily use it for when I go to the gym, but it also works great for listening to audio books when walking when relaxing. Its compact, simple, and effective. It has a Voice Recorder, which I hardly use, and a FM Tuner which is great for when you get tired of your music. Its storage capacity is well suited for my needs, and I honestly dont know why you would need more than 2 Gigs when you can always just delete the music you get tired of and add on new tracks. I really dont find any cons about it. The headphones it came with suck, but this is to be expected as you are paying for an MP3 Player and not great headphones. I got myself a great $20 pair off NewEgg and never took the pair that the U3 came with out of the box. The buttons are really sensitive, which means that you only have to lightly tap the to get them to respond, and the HOLD slider is especially there to prevent unintentional button pressing. And lastly, the clip that it came with works perfectly for me, Ive never removed it and it hasnt accidently come off since I attached it."
