Acer, who sits as the global market share leader in the netbook category with a 30.5 percent share of the pie (1.8 million units shipped), has just released an 11.6-inch netbook it believes is just what you're looking for.

"We predict that the larger display and keyboard will be a game-changer for mobile consumers looking to take it to the next level with the ultimate mobile device," said Sumit Agnihotry, vice president of product management for Acer America.

The new AO751h sports a full size keyboard and is "thinner than previous generations" at 1-inch high. Acer says it will be available in several configurations, with a baseline model boasting an Intel Atom Z520 processor (1.22GHz, 490MHz frontside bus, 512KB L2 cache), 1GB of DDR2-533 memory, a 160GB hard drive, integrated Intel GMA950 graphics, built-in media card reader, three USB 2.0 ports, and Windows XP Home with SP3.

As configured above, the AO751h carries and MSRP of $350, or $380 with a 6-cell battery.

It'd be really nice if they could add 2 gigs of ram. You can't do much multitaking with just 1. But still really cool (and not as expensive like the MacbookAir). ;]

Wow, I doubt even XP would run on 1MB of RAM.  Although I have run Windows 3.1 on a 286 w/1MB. :)
