A review of the HP Mini 5102 netbook has been posted over at Geek.com. 'The number one thing to keep in mind about the Mini 5102 is that this is a premium netbook. It's specifically designed for businesses (small or large) as well as use in school districts, but it fits the needs of demanding consumers quite well also. Much of this has to do with durability as the 5102 uses HP Durakeys (to prevent key wear), it has an aluminum LCD lid, there is an accelerometer (3D Drive Guard), the bottom of the chassis is metal, the keyboard is spill-resistant, and so on. There are also performance components, including a standard 7200RPM hard drive and 2MP webcam, plusoptions for a 1366×768 resolution option, mobile broadband, a multi-touch display, and 80/128GM SSDs. In addition to Windows 7 HP offers Windows XP, FreeDOS, or SuSE Linux.'
