Amazon UK selling Acer Aspire for under £200
In the fast moving world of the “netbooks” (as I think someone has termed them), nothing really surprises any more – at one point it looked like only Linux could realistically be run on them, then along came XP. Now, it seems that specs are going through the roof, and prices falling rapidly – as…

Well it’s nearly X1 time, and the online presence of major UK retailers is starting to get hot! Phones 4U have a nice page (where the pic above came from) detailing the plenty of info about the device, and dial-a-phone also have a ton of info on their site. I would imagine both these retailers,…
