A friend suggested the UX30 but after reading a review (
http://www.cnet.com.au/asus-ux30-339298634.htm ) I might look into a revision of it, hopefully they'll include a optical drive.
$2000 for a laptop (list price) puts that one quite a bit outside of my comfort zone. I've been using my upgraded EEE 901 (RAM and SSD) daily for the past 2+ years, but I've owned it a bit longer. I have it set up to control my much faster basement-dwelling pc via remote desktop. The only complaint I have with it is frequent stumbling while watching videos. For browsing, writing papers, torrents, and lite picture editing (photoshop doesn't like remote desktop, so I use Snagit editor) this setup works great. Screen size is too small to play anything but the most basic of games.
We originally purchased it to take on a trip with us and found its portability to be wonderful. It is FAR better to dump vacation pics onto, and preview on the "massive" 8 inch screen than on the camera's. Microsoft's maps and a GPS puck saved us a lot of frustration on that trip, as well. The SSD in this has been great for reliability and peace of mind when it gets tossed into a backpack for class.
I download most everything, so the optical drive hasn't been much of an issue for me. I did purchase an external drive, and have used that for a couple installations. By using RD, I have everything on the PC, so if I did need to burn a disk, it wouldn't be on the netbook anyway. A 16GB thumb drive can be had for about $25-30. That would give you 3 DVDs worth of space.
All said, I have loved my netbook. It was cheap, is tough, wonderfully portable, and I've found work-arounds for its lack of brute strength.
At the moment, I wouldn't spend over $1000 on a laptop. If I was to get another netbook I would mod the shit out of it but my fingers are too big. My flatmates and I attempted to take apart a MSI Wind last year and had to get a flat mates kid to take the bastard apart.
A possible reason for "choppy" video is a codec issue. What codec was the video of your videos? I would seriously look at getting CoreAVC if it's x264/h264. Did wonders on the Lenovo netbook.
Now I come to think of it I probably won't have a need for a optical drive considering I have a computer usually on. I have too many HDD's to manage manually and not enough to get a server rack.
It's on them annoying occasions when I go to a friends place and they offer to lend my a disc to rip does it really do my head in. This could probably be avoided if I lug around a external burner, but that defeats the purpose of laptops - portability.
Why the fuck doesn't the Macbook Air not even have a RJ-45 socket without an adapter?

For lowend/budget, I'd be a lot more careful. I think that's where Packard Bell and Acer, to name two examples, are cutting the most corners.
For pre-built computers, my previous experience has been something along these lines: Shuttle - great, HP/Compaq -good, Dell -good, Lenovo/IBM - good, Apple - ok, Asus - both good and shit, Acer - shit, Packard Bell - incredibly shit. And all of them are still beat by what I built myself from parts. No matter the brand, a laptop is more likely to fail, doubly so if it's a netbook, though.
The trouble in these parts of the world is that buying parts and installing, not even including labor, costs more than to buy a "off the shelf" pc. To be fair I'm not in a city CBD and if I wanted dirt cheap parts and shit service I would of went to my closest MSY store which is about 2 hours away.

Crabsticks do not actually contain any crab, and from 1993 manufacturers have been legally obliged to label them ‘crab-flavoured’ sticks.
