Good netbook deal? (Acer Aspire One AOD250-1428)
I'm looking for a netbook and am not the biggest computer expert on the planet, so I'm wondering if $329.99 for this netbook is a good deal:

I only want it for internet browsing and taking notes in class, pretty much, so I don't really care about it having massive power. My big thing is that I want it to have a non-bilingual keyboard and battery life of at least 8 hours. Preferably Windows 7 over XP. My budget is $400 pre-tax.
Should I get it? Wait for a better deal? Get a different netbook or brand? Make sure I have a good optometrist for when I lose my eyesight from squinting at a netbook screen?
