Is this one of the models using Intel Atom? If it's the earlier 701 series and it's capable of running Java and blue, I'll be leaning towards getting one of the newer netbooks with Atom processor sometime then. =P As for Java, yeah, it's not the smallest, but I'm surprised it's taking up that much space. Anyways, thanks again for your report!
