MobileComputer has a hands on with the Aspire One, they also have a good video of the Aspire One’s Linpus Linux Lite OS running.
“We didn’t get to spend long with the Aspire One and we should get a one in for full review some time next week. First impressions were good though, and the laptop feels solid and well put-together. The LED backlit screen is clear and bright; the keyboard on a par (both in terms of size and quality) with that on the MSI Wind. Good, in other words.
At just under 1kg for the three-cell battery model, the Acer Aspire One weighs about the same as the competition, but size-wise, it sits somewhere between the MSI Wind and Eee PC 900.”

Acer has set an aggressive sales target for the Acer One – its Eee PC-killer that was announced today at Computex. The world’s third largest PC vendor has forecasted sales of up to seven million units this year and 15 to 20 million next year.
The new-mini laptop will compete with a growing number of rivals in a market jump started by the Asus at last year’s Computex. Asus has only forecast sales of five million Eee PCs this year, and they’ve had a six-month head start over Acer. The new mini-laptop also faces fresh competition from several new models announced at Computex.
Companies believe the market for small laptops that have 7in to 10in screens, weigh less than 1kg and connect wirelessly to the internet is catching fire.
“This segment will be mainstream within the next few years,” said J.T. Wang, chairman of Acer, during a news conference in Taipei. His company believes the Aspire One, can attract a new kind of PC buyer, mainly people who want a low-cost, convenient mobile device they can use to surf the internet from anywhere.
