  Samsung - NC20
  
  Review summary: The sub-notebook market, once the domain of Asus with the Eee PC, has seen larger machines over the last couple of years, starting with 7-inch screens, then 9-inch, then 10-inch. These machines are portable, cheap and ...
  
  Verdict: The large screen cuts battery life a little compared to some other netbooks, but it's still impressive and the extra resolution and larger keyboard are helpful for prolonged use. VIA's Nano CPU performs quite well and overall the laptop is well ...

  Samsung NC20 - A Review of the Samsung NC20 12-inch Netbook
  By Joanna Stern
  
  Review summary: This affordable 12-inch netbook provides comparable performance to the 10-inch competition while boasting a larger screen and keyboard for a more comfortable mobile computing experience.
  
  Pros: Bright, glossy 12.1-inch screen, Full-size keyboard, Loud speakers, Excellent Wi-Fi performance
  
  Cons: Thicker than 10-inch netbooks, Long boot time for an XP netbook, 5200-mAh battery offers below-average performance for six-cell battery netbook
  
  Verdict: The NC20 houses the same ports as the NC10, including three USB 2.0 ports, a 3-in-1 memory card reader, mic and headphone jacks, a VGA port, and an Ethernet port. We would have liked to see the extra space used to accommodate an ExpressCard slot for ...
