Introduced soon after the launch of the 1008HA, the 1005HA is a similar netbook device which consists of two distinct models: the 1005HA-M and the 1005HA-H. Based on the same MacBook Air-esque body as the 1008HA, the 1005HA is slightly thicker, allowing for access to the ports not found on the 1008HA. Similarly, it eliminates the other major annoyance of the 1008HA model, its non user-replacable battery issue. Replacing the lackluster 5-hour battery on the 1008HA, the 1005HA includes longer lasting 10 or 8-hour batteries, which also can be replaced. The device models will also cost somewhat less than the 1008HA. Their differences will be highlighted below:

2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.
Pros
- light and small, extremely portable
- great keyboard layout and size - superior to the chicklet style keyboard introduced on the 1000HE
- slick enclosure
- great battery life, 8-10 hours claimed
- user-replaceable battery
- what the 1008HA should have been
- expected variety and accessibility of ports - unlike the 1008HA model
Cons
- glossy fingerprint magnet, not as luxurious as the alluminum enclosures featured on the 1002HA and 1002HAE
- Intel graphics - no ION option
- same old 1024 x 600px resolution
- still uses the ancient, inefficient and poor Intel 945 Express graphics
- two distinct models very close in price and specifications, better just to offer the superior model - further contributes to confusing the consumer
- heavier and thicker than the 1008HA
