   Summary: Sammy NC10 is wonderful!
I am sitting in the hotel lobby right now writing this review on my wonderful NC10 that I got for Christmas. Okay, so my wife told me just to buy it and put it under the tree, but it was worth the wait! Let me add my voice to the cacophony of those singing the NC10's praises! I luckily didn't get one of the screens with blotches that others have complained of. However, I would say Samsung ought to get credit for taking steps to address the problem and repair those that are affected.

As others have mentioned the keyboard is wonderful; perfectly capable of handling normal typing. The white is stylish and looks nice. The build quality seems superb and I am thoroughly enjoying the ultra-portability of the NC10. I can say I was initially concerned about the 10-inch screen being an annoyance after only using full-sized laptops but I find the screen size absolutely fine for average netbook use. I wouldn't want to write a thesis on it, but for light word processing and internet, it's fine!

Buy the Sammy!

   Summary: Great device
This device is great, and very convenient. The keyboard is amaizing. The screen is way better than the 8.9 inches ones. There is no fan noise, or overheating problem. The battery lasted for 5 hours, browsing and doing micorsoft works, which was my main purpose of obtaining this device. I don't use it to watch video which can consume more of the battery. Highly recommended

   Summary: The trackpad isn't so bad
There are a lot of reviews here raving about this netbook, so I won't repeat those statements. This really is a great little ultra portable computer. But one feature that I stumbled upon that made a difference to me was with the trackpad. Yes, as stated in all the reviews, it is small. Obviously Samsung wanted to keep the overall size of the case down. But, while looking at the various options for the trackpad I turned on the "tackball" option. This lets the cursor behave like you are actually using a trackball. Meaning, the cursor carries a momentum with it. With a flip on the trackpad you can get the cursor to gently glide across the screen. This really helps making up for the small trackpad. If you have ever used a trackball before, you will instantly appreciate this feature.
I highly suggest you try it out.

   Summary: The Perfect Solution
This is the best Christmas present I have ever bought myself!
So far, this Netbook is exactly what I needed: the battery lasts more than 6.5 hours, the OS is the XP version and it recognizes all my external drives and peripherals. Yes, there really is a Santa Claus! :D
I'll be entering a more extensive review here soon...

   Summary: Great small machine overall, some questions for exterior finishes
Ok, this is a quick review after 1 full day of use of Samsung NC10 (blue). The battery claims seem true, it did hold 5-6 hours with heavy use (installing a lot of software, wifi on, Firefox w/hulu, vlc music player in the background). I am just estimating here, no precise measurements were done.The LCD is bright and a special Fn key made turning the brightness on and off easy. The overall computing power w/ the Atom processor is fine, no problem running basic office applications, email, media players. There is no crapware pre-installed. All the Samsung software added over win xp sp3 make sense and works well. Some custom drivers are included. The keyboard is not as good as HP 1035 but overall is decent, you can use it ok if you don't have extra large hands. The trackpad is small but gets the job done. 3 USB ports seems enough. The on/off power button on the right side is cool and practical. 160 GB HDD is plenty. I have installed also full Fedora Linux 10 distro. It works well, (including wireless), out of the box. No Linux voodo required. The hard drive is divided in 2 partitions initially. Wifi g is excellent, plenty of signal around the house at both floors, great speed surfing the internet.
Now, few complains: once overall seems like a ok solid machine, there are some touches of not-so-inspired chassis and cover designs. The interior of the netbook is matte but the exterior lid is glossy; I suppose, this is a matter of taste. Always will be people who like the shiny Iphone and others who like the Gphone. Same with the metal-trim around the edges. Also, making the edges thinner then the rest of the machine creates an illusion that the netbook is slimmer, but in the same time there is a concern if anything bumps into those edges. I rather like the understated simplicity of Lenovo S10 in this regard. These machines need to do some duty outside of the cozzy work desk of their owner and I would say Samsung still has some work in this area. All in all a great electronics piece but harmed by some cheap exterior design touches. One more thing: the 1GB memory can be upgraded to 2GB opening a small door on the bottom of NC10. However, if you intend to upgrade the HDD, you need to open the main cover of the machine for good and you will void the warranty. Would I recommended it?, yes, if one likes the glossy lid style and does no plan to harm the machine doing errants outside the house.
