I had look at some of the netbooks. Acer, Sony & Samsung
Acer & Sony seem to have much better and clear display than Samsung. Sony is much expensive > 23K while Acer 722 model looks economical <20K & has 11’’ display. 722 is based on AMD 1 Ghz while others are Intel Atom 1.66Ghz..
Is anyone using Acer 722?
I was also told by a dealer that AMD has heating problems??
Any suggestions would be great.

ROFLMAO. I thought that only desktop sellers spread this rumor of AMD having heating problems.

The best netbooks in the market are powered by AMD E-350 APUs.

AMD 1GHz? Can you confirm the model if it is C50 or E350 since i've not seen AMD C50 based netbooks in India yet.
