$444.99
Released May, 2010
The Pros:Aluminum lid / palmrests - a huge step up over the glossy plasics of previous generations. Extremely thin and lightweight - less than 0.75" thick, weights only 2.4 pounds. Large multi-touch touchpad.
The Cons:Standard netbook display with limited 1024 x 600px resolution, poor viewing angles. Standard netbook components - nothing groundbreaking / powerful, Intel GMA, basic array of ports. Non-standard shrunken right shift key.

More notably, the 1018P will sport an OPTIONAL USB 3.0 interface. Unfortunately the 1018P lacks the 1016P’s integrated 3G, but users will likely have the option of adding a 3G modem for an additional fee. Note also that all three models are supposed to have a 14-hour battery life, but critics claim the 1018P is limited to only 10 hours.
