    that's an interesting review which uses some benchmarks to demonstrate the Nano's strengths.

    I've had three different software packages give the CPU speed as 1.5, 1.54 and 1.6GHz so there's a little uncertainty about the maximum CPU speed.

    I wouldn't be so enthusiastic about the battery time. The 6 hours represents very light usage when the VIA hardware is very economical on power. However, give it some work and it uses battery faster than the Intel equivalent.
