My wife is currently looking into getting a netbook for field research. She'll be spending a couple months at a time in south america, but doesnt want to take her main laptop with her. Some friends had various netbooks while traveling there (the small size was convenient for field work).
I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for this, since it really is just for this purpose, but it would be nice if it were powerful enough to run ArcGIS. She'll mostly need it for some internet, data entry (MS excel, access) and mapping (ArcGIS).
Been looking at Asus Eee PC. Anyone have any suggestions / experiences with netbooks?
