Was thinking about buying a small Netbook to take to China with me in a few weeks. Don't know a lot about them – I think I'll use it more for writing and storing photos than connection to the Internet (don't think they have wi-fi on the Great Wall!). Anyone know anything about them, or have any recommendations? It needs to be reasonably small (though not stupidly so), and pretty rugged, so SSD might be the way to go. Though I don't really want to pay more than £300 for it. Thoughts?

last time I looked a few weeks back, the best one spec wise seemed to be one of the samsungs. but you can probably get smaller/ruggeder without needing the spec.
