Price is a bit higher than the new launched Gateway Netbook LT2009 which is only 17,900 with same specs and overwhelming design. =) I’ll go for Gateway LT2009i, an american brand and a company acquired by Acer. =)

Hi,

Can someone please help me for information how to reset my Lenovo S10e password?

It was done wrong with my service provider Auto page. The computer keeps on asking for a password to connect onto the internet.

Thanks
Henk.

hm. the s10 is really lovely. but the capslock is eating me! and the tab is too narrow! but for the price of cheap mobility, its something that you can turn a blind eye on. :)
there’s not much significant difference between the 12″ or the 14″ lenovos from this 10″ s10 except for the troublesome capslock and tab keys, keyboard-wise.

Got one a month ago and its features are good, except a sort of glitch on the built-in webcam. Sad to say, I have to send it to their shop for troubleshooting.

I got mine already! Wahoo!

Fun, very porma, especially the case. Haha.

But MS XP Service pack 3 (which came with it) SUCKS BIG TIME! Blocks my internet (similar complaint from other SP3 users according to the broadband tech guy). Blocks Quicktime and Real Media Player installation. Doesnt allow re-installation of Service Pack 2! I HATE IT!!!

OR. I should just go to the computer shop. Haha.

Well, it’s about the same price as an Eee PC1000H at 26K, so it’s fair. But I can’t wait three more months… And for me it’ll be Maple Story on the go, FTW!

Any updates? From what I know it’s coming out in November, not September, and the price will be around Php26,500, At least that’s what it says on the PC Corner website. If it’s coming in Sept., I can wait for it, but Nov., nah…

Any more details? Sounds too cheap to be true for a Lenovo. Seems like I need to hold off buying a sub-notebook again.

Wow, at that low price compared to the others? I’m definitely going to go for this one and then install Ubuntu on it. :D

If that is the actual price of the 10.2 incher, I’d definitely get that instead of the Dell E Slim. Hope it comes with the Lenovo roll cage.

This will make Linux popular. I hope this trend will cause Linux to significantly improve.
