Brushed Aluminum Netbook for Less than $300

The Sheng T108 does indeed from the outside look like a flashy piece of kit, and while inside it's all pretty much what we'd expect from a netbook, there are a few notable exceptions. While you'll find an Intel Atom N280 and its regular 945GS chipset buddy, you'll also enjoy a more substantial 2GB of DDR2 memory and a larger 250GB hard drive, upped from the typically miserly 1GB and 160GB that you'd expect on a netbook. The battery is a 3-cell 3000mAh polymer jobby, there's a build in webcam, VGA port, 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi, a SIM card slot for simple 3G connectivity and a standard card reader.
