I got my AS1810T one week ago, the MSRP price is $599 in US one week ago (now go up to $749 in Amazon, not sure why Amazon mark up the price so high), but fortunately I got a very attractive price from my friend work for Acer America (I cannot tell you the exactly price what I got, but the price I paid is just for a netbook in the market...;)) BTW, this model released in US about one week ago even right now most of the retailer still no stock.
It looks like there are four color options, but only black (8638) and blue (8679) with SU7300, the others with SU4100.
There is no protection sleeve / mouse come with this beauty.
5600 mAh battery for 8 hrs
The AC adapter is very compact.
The armrest is silver color.
With my thinkpad X60 tablet (12.1").
Here is the Windows 7 experience index for your information.
Here is what I thought after one week use.
Pros:
1. Compact design.
2. Fast CULV CPU, 4GB RAM, Windows 7 bootup time less than 1 min.
3. Build Quality.
4. abgn with bluetooth.
5. Battery Life (8 hrs) in spec, my experience is 5hrs (bluetooth tethering web surfing)
6. HDMI output.
7. No probelm to run all HD formats (Flash HD from Youtube is smooth also).
8. Not very hot.
9. Sound is very loud and clear.
Cons:
1. Cooling fan running all the time (a little bit noisy).
2. Too much plastic, the screen cover probably easy get scratch, and easy to get fingerprint...
3. Although most of the flash games in facebook is running smoothly, but for running Cafe World (my levle is 32), the sceen become extremely slow, there is no probelm to run Roller Coaster Kingdom. Since I am not 3D gamer, so I cannot tell this beauty is good for gamer or not.
4. The armrest is too small.
5. The trackpad is too sensitive.
6. Screen is too bright and limited view angle.
Overall, I like this laptop very much, though it's light and compact with lots of power. Since my work needed so I upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, the upgrade process is very easy and smooth.
