Advantages: Great sound, Great looks Disadvantages: No remote control
The JBL On Time is a stylish, high performance iPod dock, RDS radio and alarm clock, available in black or white finish. It's one of the more expensive iPod docks on the market, but as with most things, you get what you pay for and the sound quality is FAR superior to cheaper alternatives (I also own an older Intempo iPod dock which was much cheaper but the sound quality is awful).
JBL are specialists in audio and it shows, the "Halo acoustics" system produces a rich, full sound from any direction and is more than enough for a bedroom or small to mid-sized living room. Before buying it, I'd only heard it inside a large, noisy department store and the sound didn't completely convince me, but I took the risk and bought one. After trying it at home, I'm more than happy with both the volume, and the quality of the sound.

Advantages: Spacious keyboard and speedy boot-up Disadvantages: Slightly dubious design
The Samsung NC10 weighs 1.3kg and the solid weight makes the NC10 feel more durable and steady. I like the matt finish and its slightly rough texture. What's more, the battery has an amazing life of up to five hours in standard mode . If you adjust the settings, battery life may just get up to an extra hour.
The NC10 measures 260 x 170 x 30mm, with the 6-cell battery at the back, which added an extra 5mm to the total length. At first, you will feel uncomfortable when put on your lap but when it's put on the table, it raises the screen a little, making the whole thing ergonomically-friendly.
Comparative to the ASUS Eee PC 1000, the screen of the NC10 does not feel as solid.
About the system, it's very smooth and quick, as it boots in just 29 seconds. I also like its performance, as in, it runs Microsoft Office with no ...

Advantages: Portability, quality, style, etc etc! Love It. Disadvantages: Battery does make unit tilt backwards a bit (but not really a negative!)
I have owned this fantastic netbook for 9 months now and I take it with me everywhere. I absolutely love it! I bought it solely for internet access as I like the odd bet when I'm out and about (!) so I can only really comment on this type of usage. Where shall I begin. Well the NC10 looks gorgeous, mine is the glossy black colour and it opens up to a more than generous keyboard which is brilliant for those emails and the keys are perfectly responsive. Then there is the large 10" screen with fabulous brightness and clarity. Perfect size. Bought a nice protective pouch to keep the unit in and then just pick up and go! Battery life is outstanding. I get easily six hours internet access on one charge. The other great point is that the NC10 only takes a minute to boot up and then you're online! BRILLIANT product. LOVE IT! My favourite ...
