Reviews of the Sylvania 7" G Netbook

    CNET Review

    August 4, 2008

    The Good: Very small and light; on the low end of the Netbook price scale; twice the RAM of other $399 Netbooks.

    The Bad: Tiny 7-inch screen limits usability; underpowered processor; world's smallest touch pad.

    The Bottom Line: The tiny Sylvania G Netbook offers decent battery life and can be had for a low price, but it still brings up the rear of the Netbook pack, with a small 7-inch screen, underpowered CPU, and a microscopic touch pad.
