Touch screen makes it unique. It turns heads. But the Touchgate software is so resource draining, that when it is running, nothing else does. Would be nice if the touchscreen could be turned off to free up cpu and battery. Trying to write with the stylus is difficult since the screen also reads every brush from your wrist or shirt cuff.

Having bought it im a little disappointed. First off its just too slow for the touch interface to function properly. The shift and enter keys are very poorly placed. The touch pad doesn't work very well, it occasionally thinks you are trying to do something else than move the cursor. If you use the touch pad to write there is no "interpolations" i.e. your writing looks like you wrote it in paint. All in all they should have held off on this till they had improved it a little but on the upside you do get a lot of features for a low price. I especially appreciate the ss-hdd and Bluetooth. I almost rate it 3 out of 5 but everything considered I would not recommend it. Rating: 2 / 5 I read about this net book long before it was released and really looked forward to it.

It is lightweight and easy to operate. I am a home inspector and use it on all my home inspections. It is a little slow but works great for my applications. I carry the T71 throughout the home as I do my inspections and this eliminates the need to centrally locate the computer which saves time.. Rating: 5 / 5 The ASUS T91 is a great notebook.

I use it as a portable book reader and for light windows applications. Keeps charge for a long time and light weight. If you are looking for a work horse or planning to do a lot of typing this laptop is not for you. <br /> <br />W Rating: 4 / 5 Works just great for the reasons I have bought it.

When we first received it, the stylus scratched the screen the first time it was used. We shipped it to the repair center and got it back a couple of days later to find that the power switch would not work. It would not even turn on! We sent it back to the repair center and haven't seen it since. They are already having to change out parts to a brand new netbook that was used once. We paid nearly $500.00 for it, and it is already needing new parts. There is obviously something wrong with it. Could it possibly be a lemon? They will not send us a new one. If we ever get it back, and something goes wrong again, we are contacting the BBB and a lawyer. I would not recommend ever purchasing anything from them.
