It turns out that there might be a good reason why the Acer Aspire One 532h may be priced so competitively.  After taking a look at the specs for the netbook on Acer’s website, it appears that it’s limited to just 1GB of RAM.  A firmware update may change that (unless it’s a hardware based limitation) but this make it a hard sell for many people.

This is starting to make the Asus 1001P netbook look a lot more attractive since Asus has said that you can upgrade the memory to 2GB.
