Finally, we get our hands on a netbook that brings a feature to the table not found on other devices in the class -- the GIGABYTE M1022.

The Booktop may be on the costly side, thanks to the bundled docking station, but it still falls below "premium" netbook costs. Plus the excellent battery life and ability to switch from a desk-bound PC to a portable mini-laptop captured our attention.
Comfortable keyboard ; ExpressCard slot ; Optional HSDPA connectivity ; Good battery life ; Draft-N Wi-Fi radio ; Bundled docking station converts netbook into a nettop

Consumer review (cnet.com.au)
This netbook was quite a good buy. However, why so expensive? I dont think that the dock is worth so much? The battery indicator I hardly use and there is so much fancy trim, its just a netbook.
It has a docking
expensive
Consumer review (cnet.com.au)
This Booktop looks like a little like an apple product, which I have a lot of. I like the black-white colour tones, and I dont need to plug in cables. Use an external monitor. Quite useful.
Easy to use
No cd-rom

Nice notebook with a dock. Charges and connects to an external monitor. Saves plugging in cables.
White and glossy
A little expensive

I like the battery indicator on this Gigabyte Booktop when the unit is off. Saves me the trouble of switching on to check if I have enough charge b4 I leave the house. Glossy white though.... uhhh..
Charger and battery indicator
Only White
Consumer review (cnet.com.au)

Conveniet, 6 USB ports when docked, Charges on dock
White is only color
