Conclusion:

The reviewers requirements on the go are WordPress and a good working web browser. If these work well on this machine then it could end up replacing his Intel Atom netbook.

Android OS:

The Android 2.1 Operating system still lacks a lot of software for netbooks and smartbooks. For an OS built around finger touch, the interface is mouse unfriendly. There's no hover, no scrollbars, panning through items requires pan and drag like in Photoshop.

Video Performance:

A 1080p H.264 video trailer stuttered slightly and crashed half way through. Worked fine the second time and seemed to play flawlessly. Transferring files from an SD card to a USB stick was deemed unfit, has probably something to do with the OS.
