A comparison of ' UMID M1 , the Raon Everun Note is slightly larger and much heavier, but I think we are close to "perfect product" (of course for me) because it has the features you've always wanted from my EeePC 701:
7-inch screen, more processing power, a 'good connectivity with devices (usb, sd, external display) a good time.

I read eeeguides that you can feed the eeepc with a solar panel, even if seeing the specifications of the solar cell (you can find on ebay for a few euros) 5W in full sun, it is unthinkable to feed it while it is running, probably the can be used to charge the battery when not in use, thus extending the total duration.

One of the problems I faced since I installed the latest version of Mandriva on my EeePC 701 is related to the problem of the FN + F2 function key for turning on the wifi.

Overcome by curiosity to try other games on eeepc, I downloaded and installed SuperTuxKart famous game that hints at Mario Kart , basically a nice game of cars where the aim is obviously to get the first (obvious?), but with the ' incentive to "break the boxes" for bonuses to be used during the race: missiles to knock down opponents and the like.
