There isn't much that doesn't work on the ASUS eeePC 701 with the current
snaps - the inbuilt wireless still doesn't work (reyk@ is about to work on
this!) and the inbuilt camera. Don't think there's anything else...
There are some known issues with the eeePC 900 series machines, however I
don't have access to one to confirm (apparently they can hang during boot,
etc).
Also, I highly doubt that the wireless will work on the Acer Aspire One - the
Atheros AR5424 14.2 appears to be the same wireless that's in the eeePC 701,
which is currently unsupported.
