Just taken ownership of an Acer Aspire D250-1838 and it seems to be a great little 10" unit.
Windows 7 starter doesn't seem to be missing anything I need and runs well with the standard 1GB of RAM.
Wifi is 802.11b/g/Draft-N, HD is 250GB.
Battery life is claimed to be 8 or 9 hours.
Webcam has very good resolution using Skype.
At US$365 on Amazon, I think it was a bargain.

I bought the ASUS eee PC1000 and put in:
2Gb of RAM (Needed for W7).
A 64Gb fast Runcore SSD.
Windows 7 (and disable the pagefile to reduce read/writes).
All works swimmingly, I get 5 hours of watching video on it (this really sucks the battery, so you'll get much more if you're only typing emails and stuff, but very useful when you've seen all the IFE!) and replacement batteries are cheap anyway.
