First let me start out by saying that I did NOT purchase this GPS unit with geocaching in mind. I had heard of the sport but never really did any investigation of what it was all about until after I had purchased the unit.

Overall I think it is a good device… There are a number of positive things and negative things about it that I will detail below. I know for the holiday season that they are blowing these things out on their website to make room for the beefier brother that is also available on their website.

Some cool things I like:

The Color Screen - I find it easy to read, and even in bright sunlight I don’t have a problem seeing it.

Our top ten mini laptops list as of December 2008. This list compiles the best netbooks based upon cost, size, practicality and how useful they are. On a side note, we’ve also judged by looks as well in some cases.
Down the bottom is of our top ten mini laptops is…

#10 - Dell Inspiron Mini 9

At the bottom of our top ten mini laptops is the Dell Inspiron Mini 9. It is a simple spec 9 inch netbook with Intel Atom and HSDPA provided by Vodafone (on contract only). The Mini 9 trips up though over its keyboard which has no function keys and is altogether not very large anyway. This is thanks to the battery being pushing right into the chassis in a bid to make it smaller and lighter.

Overall: 2 stars

#9 - Asus Eee PC 701

The original netbook is still functional, although it is now second rate compared to its bigger and newer siblings. It also still has the old, slow Intel Celeron M processor - not the new Atom. It also lacks the storage and memory of the larger models, most of the 701 series are on 512MB of memory and between 2 and GB of SSD. Still true to the netbook roots, it is the smallest, cheapest and lightest mini laptop available - although you can do better.
