Difference between Asus 1015 PEM MU17 and PU17: Is there a difference between the Asus 1015 PEM-MU17 and the PU17, besides colors and battery life?

The primary differences between these two models is 1) the PU17 has a better battery (rated up to 13 hours instead of 10 hours with the MU17) 2) the PU17 has Bluetooth 3.0 and the MU 17 has no Bluetooth 3) the PU17 comes in black, blue, red, and white while the MU17 only comes in black, blue, and white You can compare the differences between the ASUS Eee PC product lines at this link: http://commercial.asus.com/category/overview/17

Probably the difference is in the tabs. These two urls give you some info on the tab configurations and the significance of the letters.http://www.standardbatteryinc.com/blogs/batteries-101/11639085-battery-terminalshttp://www.standardbatteryinc.com/blogs/batteries-101/11786397-the-ub12180-batteryThe main difference is probably the terminal configuration. Did you specify a tab style?

AJB, you are correct that they are not the same, they are indeed quite different. You hit on almost all of the differences, here are the other two:- the 1005PE-MU17 has 802.11 b/g/n whereas the 1001P-PU17 has 802.11 b/g- the 1001P-PU17 has Bluetooth and the 1005PE-MU17 does not

Its about the display, the V1 uses TN panel, which has poor viewing angles and color representation. I had the msp19 U and it had the same TN panel as the V1, you have to look directly at it the panel if you view it at an angle it will do a very odd hue shift turning all your colors to greyish mud. V2 is an IPS panel way better color representation, and excellent view angles, so you dont have to hover directly over the monitor you can work at an angle that is comfortable to you. it sounds like a small difference but its huge.

I must say its false marketing from Asus saying it has USB 3.0 on some models when its impossible to buy it, at least no sellers on the net specify it, what I have found.. (perhaps only one model is sold in one copy and is locked in the Asus test lab in China, yeah right so much fuss for that extra *** in the finetext of the specs) Why not be more clear on what models are with USB3.0 why not name it 1015PED-U3 instead?

My understanding is that there are no major practical differences, but a few small ones. The newer P'9223 is smaller and lighter than the P'9220, and the P'9223 is a metallic silver color that matches the late model Macbook Pro's color, while the older P'9220 is a darker color.

I can't find much of any difference between the 3. I referred to the following to compare them. Check to see if you can find any difference.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N;=-1&IsNodeId;=1&Descr;iption=ASUS%20H81M-A&bop;=And&CompareItemL;ist=-1%7C13-132-044%5E13-132-044-TS%2C13-132-052%5E13-132-052-TS%2C13-132-042%5E13-132-042-TS&percm;=13-132-044%3A%24%24%24%24%24%24%24%3B13-132-052%3A%24%24%24%24%24%24%24%3B13-132-042%3A%24%24%24%24%24%24%24

I've read from other posts that the main difference is longer battery life. I've not used mine long enough to verify that.

found this link - which says - there is only one screw at the bottom which gives access to RAM. Could you also please post pictures/video while upgrading the RAM is possible.http://www.nerdycomputers.com/laptop/asus-eee-pc-1015ped-pu17-bu-10-1-inch-blue-netbook-up-to-13-hours-of-battery-life/

There may be some specs differences, but from a user point of view, practically speaking, they are very similar. Hope this helps.

The U100 is upgradeable to 2gig memory and has more wireless capability, incl bluetooth. I want the memory for photo editing. After I purchased this little puppy, I dumped my new entertainment pc and desktop. I found that I just kept reaching for the U100. I had evaluated the Asus HE and the Samsung. Both weighed more, and the Samsung cost a lot more. I am quad booting this with XP, OSX, Linux, and Windows 7 so that I can test my web site on several platforms. What a solid, well-designed little machine! The keyboard and speaker issues are minor compared to the tremendous value and flexibility of this laptop, and are easily dealt with.

I have the same question. From everything I have read it is basically the same thing except for the red line on the N110 and possibly the screen is more glossy then the NC10 SE. Hope it's the same :) I'm getting my SE tomorrow!

The only information that I could find is that the AL2223Wd is silver (instead of black) and has a contrast ratio of 800:1 instead of 700:1. Both have the same resolution, screen size, and response time. Acer's web site does not even have information, that I could find, on the AL2223Wd.Seeing as the amazon reviews for both products are stellar, I am thinking that both of these are good products. Anyone have additional information?- Mike

Good question. The first model ships with a TN display and the second has an IPS display. IPS displays have a much better view angle than does a TN. If color consistency is important for you across the display I'd lean towards V2. I own the TN panel MVP22U and have enjoyed it thus far though I mostly do hand-drawn animation and some 3D sculpting and weight painting with it. Read of course Frendens tips for installing drivers for the MSP19U and you'll sort yourself out though not entirely without some hair-pulling and moderate swearing.

There appears to be no difference in their specs. They are listed together. I suggest you call them directly. Sorry I could be so little help

Not sure if there is a difference!!!! Maybe a longer life battery is included in the 515!!!
