The "best" laptop all depends on your personal needs. I guess the question to ask is, what will you primarily be using it for?If you just need internet access while traveling, both Dell and Lenovo both make extremely affordable laptops. Dell's Inspiron series are priced as low as $300 and they come in all kinds of fun styles/colors. Lenovo makes a similar laptop called the IdeaPad for about the same price. Just remember, this is primarily for internet use. This is not a good laptop if you plan to install a lot software and run applications.If you want a laptop to be used as a desktop replacement for home, you may want to consider Dell's Inspiron 15. These come with more processing power and are customizable with media for home use. They also come in a variety of styles/colors and are affordably priced at around $500.
Specs for most netbook are the same Intel Atom CPU, 1G gram, small capacity SSD. Lenovo s10 features 160G SATA harddrives, which can hold lots of media and documents, a SD/MS card reader and Express card 34 slot for expansion. Samsung NC10 features 93% fullsize keyboard and up to 8hrs of battery life (good for blogging on the go). Both s10 and NC10 has several color options, 10 inch screen (1024x600) and 1yr of warranty.

I have been looking for the answer to this question for the last 3 months, and driving my husband nuts in doing so.
I finally found the answer yesterday after all the comparing and searching I have found that the ASUS netbooks are the best on the market right now, they get great reviews and are affordable for everyone.
These netbooks offer a lot of power for the price.
Powered by the Intel Atom processor, the Eee PC 900HA is your perfect outdoor companion while on the move. What's more, it features an 8.9-inch widescreen for comfortable viewing pleasure, the Super Hybrid Engine that manages your power consumption.

I came across this site which has a comparison chart for 2009 Netbooks and looks like you might find them within you budget.http://computers.toptenreviews.com/netbooks/It also contains the ratings and all the feature description. Might be of some help.
The HP one has a great keyboard.
