    Samsung NC10 or N110 Netbook

    I'm thinking of getting a netbook to take with me on my travels. It will be used for internet, word processing and quick viewing of images (no photo editing).
    I've narrowed my choice down to either the Samsung NC10 or the newer Samsung N110. Both of these get excellent reviews. My query is mainly about the screen. On the NC10 it's matt, whilst on the N110 it's gloss. Does anyone have any experience of either (or both) of these netbooks. Is the N110 worth the extra £50 (approx)?
    Many thanks.

    I'm writing this on the N110 which is a great little machine but the screen size is too small for some software especially photo manipulation software some of which refuses to run unless the screen is in a 1:1.3333 ratio which the Samsung ones aren't. So so long as you don't want to do a lot of editing it will be fine and I can use mine to run Canon cameras tethered. Battery life is great too. I preferred the 110 over the NC10 because of the shiny screen. Incidentally I find Fast Stone Image Viewer by far the best for viewing on the wide screen of the N110.

    I use an NC10, I'm not to keen on glossy screens, and use TetherPro when I wish to use my Nikons er...tethered. I also have installed Elements 6 and find everything ok. I agree there can be issues with the screen aspect ratio but overall I find it a very useful and capable device and well worth the money. And as for battery life...brilliant.
