Averatec 1000 - Notebook Reviews by Mobile Tech Review

 

Good performer by B5 size subnotebook standards. Intel Centrino technology provides both strong performance and good battery runtimes. The Averatec 1000 looks great, really great! Good set of ports, excellent display, relatively roomy keyboard and...

Can't upgrade memory. Keyboard is a little dead, as is the trackpad.

An excellent notebook for the price! It fares well against much more expensive competitors such as the Sony T250 and T350. While not ultra-thin it's a gorgeous looking B5 sized notebook in the TR3A tradition and is similar in size to the Fujitsu...

Had over 3 years, a great mini laptop

Bought this early 2005 and its still going strong. Only one problem happened two summers ago. The screen would go out and you would have to close the screen and then open it and it would work for a while. It was still under the warranty so had it...

Good Laptop in good price

Beautiful design with tiny real "notebook" size. If we can upgrade to 1 GB RAM, I will say this is an excellent notebook for people on the go!

Hot to the point of burning finger tips

Its a cute looking computer. Light and a perfect size. BUT, it gets so hot that I basically can not use it after about half an hour. The cursor area is untoucahble. Even typing is uncomfortble and unplesant because of the heat and the high temperature...

I bought this notebook to use while travelling since I take lots of digital photos and need somewhere to store them. \n \nIts look is very stylish with an all-white interior with a burgundy cover. The keyboard is compact, so if you have big hands you...

Love it, love it, love it

 

Love it, love it, love it

I bought this for my job. I am a road warrior and have to use my notebook on each appointment. I have a Dell 15.4" at home that I love, but it got to heavy for me in and out of the car. So this 10.6" is absolutely perfect. It's considerably faster...

Averatec price = averatec quality

I bought a similar model a while ago and I am surprised by the number of positive reviews and the high score that this item received. Perhaps they were predominantly written just after purchase. At that time, my feelings were warm as well, albeit not...
