The 1008HA looks nice, but the non-replaceable battery and non-upgradeable memory are a bit of a turnoff so I'm leaning towards the 1000HA with 9 hour battery and replaceable memory. Unless I can force myself to wait for netbooks with the ION chipset, but I doubt those will be in stores before September. As I understand it, the 1004DN has an optical drive, the 1008HA doesn’t.
