I saw that it came with a gig of RAM, but didn't get far enough to see it was upgradable - and for mostly Web access, that amount wouldn't really be necessary unless you have a ton of tabs open at once. The long battery life would also be nice. For those uses, it sounds like it would be a good thing to have.

The NB205 will support 2GB of RAM so that would be a for sure upgrade. Also, it would be used mostly for web access and as a small portable to have around and use as needed. Some form of 3G or EVDO would be nice for when I am out also. The key items that draw me to the category are the size and the battery life.

Just for browsing the Web and some Office programs? I guess, for me, I'd rather have a laptop over a netbook, just to have the additional resources available. My desktop has 4 GB memory (well 3.24 GB that's recognized), and I'll quite often go over a gig of memory, having a lot of windows and apps open at once. Some of the programming tools I use take up quite a bit of resources, too, so that would be a drawback. It all depends on what you would use the netbook for, I suppose.
