I saw these on that Verizon commercial this past weekend...

It’s ultra–portable. Lightweight. Less expensive than standard notebooks and functions on America’s largest and most reliable 3G network. You can keep on top of business and stay informed and in touch when out of the office and even when out of the country! The HP Mini comes with Genuine Windows®XP Home Edition Operating System, is global capable*, features a 10.1" display, 1GB of RAM and 80GB of Hard Drive. It is comes with a built–in Web–cam and microphone, Bluetooth and Windows Media Player.

You can also get a slightly different more configurable model directly from HP...

Anybody got or seen one of these in action?

HP Mini is good, but if you get it from Verizon you'll be raped by the dataplan for 2 years.

Everything I've read about the HP is good, people love it.

However, that being said, I have a Dell Mini 9 and it is by far the coolest little computer I've ever owned. I drag it almost everywhere with me. People bash netbooks, but if you come in expecting too much from a cheap, small computer you're going to be disappointed.

Thanks man. I just checked out the Mini 9 on dell.com too... nice, with a solid state HDD for only $350... I prefer Dell anyway.

Check out the Dell Outlet as well. You can find one there that someone sent back without using, or a refurbished one that is basically brand new for around 250 or less.

they're a bunch of them out now.. If you just need to use the internet and don't wanna drag something bulky around just get a netbook. netbook, eee pc, dell mini, macbook air(expensive as balls though, wouldn't recommend) all are out just for that purpose, and they're pretty cheap compared to retail laptops.

Ahahahahahaha. The MacBook Air really is the most expensive netbook out there.

are you being serious? I just checked and that is what my bank gave me...an Asus Eee PC Series - 2G Surf...it's pretty damn small...I can palm it in my big ass hand

That sucker is smaller than most of the popular Netbooks now. Yours has a 7" screen I believe most now have 10.1"ers.

The wife and daughter have been using these ultralight Dell L400s with a 12" screen.

But I'm thinking now of Ebaying those and getting them the ASUS Eee PC EPC1000HE. Sweet little lappies with 8 hours battery life.

      2025 Salary Cap Offense/Defense

      By Navy_football · Posted

      No one. Why do you think that is? Because they love Bryce Young's media presence, or because they realize the TEAM is an absolute shiite show that very few QBs could have success in? Knowing what you know about Tepper, which do you think is the reason? Don't try to overthink it. It's the obvious answer. These receivers aren't good - yet. Did you watch last night's game? How do you think our receivers stack up to GB and WAS receivers? Hot take... Renfrow should have caught the pass he took a shot on. Sanders caught the exact same pass running the exact same route with the exact same hit later in the game. There was another pass down the sideline that Renfrow should have caught and got his feet inbounds. The pass that was thrown short was a bad throw by Bryce. He flat out missed that throw. No argument there - and a great play call/design by Canales. But a better receiver either catches the ball or draws a PI with the defender's back towards the ball. The defender never saw the ball. He 100% played the receiver. Bryce isn't exactly killing it, but his receivers aren't doing him any favors either. Their job is to make QBs right, not the other way around. Any Joe SHOULD be able to go out there and catch perfect passes in perfect calls where they're wide open. That doesn't make you an NFL wide receiver.

      Hunt and Lewis on the report two weeks in a row to start the season. You can guarantee they will miss time at some point

      You all over the map.   First you scoff at seam routes being hospital balls…despite the fact those are always routes QB have to be worried about throwing their WR into a hit.  now you are countering with the “you act like Renfrow is on IR” defense  and the “but how did he keep playing after that” defense lol it’s a hospital.  Simple.  You even got NFL QBs explaining it to you in real time with the all22 and telling exactly where Bryce need to put the ball and when.
