Hercules eCafe Full Review: Sweet Software Suite, But Not Enough Battery Life
November 17th, 2009 by K. T. Bradford 
Our full review of the Hercules eCAFÉ EC-1000W is now live. We’re still impressed with the netbook’s aesthetics and most aspects of the design (the mouse buttons are a weak point) and we like that it comes bundled with some useful software, including OpenOffice. Not so impressive is the performance, including the battery life. Though it outlasts some other Windows 7 systems, it’s still below the average longevity of netbooks with 6-cell batteries.
Still, it is a nice looking machine. If it lasted longer and didn’t perform so poorly on graphics tasks I’d make it my cafe netbook. It would look good sitting on a little table next to a latte and a fancy cookie, don’t you think?
