The silver one has a better battery.. 5600 vs 4400, although both are 6-cell

I had previously asked this exact question of Amazon and was told by their rep that it is indeed the exact same machine save for the inclusion of the Kindle on the X1K. I'm not sure as to why the "newer" one has a lighter shipping weight. Could be that they are packaging it differently.

I'm sure that there are some differences between the two, but I have the newer version, and my best friend the original, and they are nearly identical. We can't tell the difference between them. Save the money and grab the original...

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

The model 1068 seems to be identical, except it comes with a mini mouse instead of a sleeve. Also, the 1068 is cheaper at present for some reason. (I ordered it shipped from amazon to get free shipping, but they have it on backorder. It's available from other vendors here, though.) The tech stuff seems to be exactly the same. I posted a discussion on this to see if there are any other differences. You might want to check the model 1068 out. I see no difference except for the sleeve/mouse.

From what I understand there is not a difference in the product, but rather a difference in the seller. Both are Xboom Mini Speakers with Rechargeable Batteries, however some sellers are having a deal reducing the price to anywhere between 14.99-17.99 (the few dollar difference is due to popularity in color), and areally also including prime shipping. Where the other sellers are not offering a deal and selling the product at its original price and charging shipping.

Since you have a fundamental question, I think you will likely want to stick with your Netbook: it's cheap and it has exactly what you already have. Sure, it may not be powerful or particularly capable, but if it gets the job done, you're all set.If you really love those classic PC products, no tablet from any manufacturer is going to give you the same classic experience with a Tablet - as Tablets are fundamentally different than a PC. A tablet is a fundamentally different computing platform, and even Microsoft's own tablets are simply "different", which will lead to compatibility issues. You want a Windows XP machine running Office 2003 - or something very similar.

I'm not sure how Kindle DX operates exactly. However, I can tell you that the ASUS tablet can run Kindle as well as a bunch of other apps. If all you want to do is read, watch movies, and surf the web, I'd get a Kindle. If you'd like to do a lot more, I'd get the ASUS ; )

There is no differance, i have one of each. Get the cheaper one it is the same as the other. I was wondering myself that is why i got one of each, they are exactly the same.

They are generally the same. There are button placement changes and the set up seemed easier on the new model. Both have worked well for us.

Thank you all for your thorough responses! I bought the X1 because it has similar functionality to the X5 and is much cheaper (I also obviously get less). If I like it I will definitely upgrade. The majority of my music and books on tape are .mp3 format- so I want to make sure it all transfers well. Also the X1 is smaller and since I run a lot I didn't want a bulky mp3 player. Some said the X5 is rather large and heavy compared to other mp3 players.

I believe it's just an older model number. I haven't found anything with any difference between the two of them.

Yes, they are the same thing. If not it would update for free to be the same, but if I remember right, when I bought it it was all up to date. It's totally worth the buy imo

Honestly, I cannot tell any difference. I called the Microsoft Store and they don't have different versions. Strange.

I doubt there is any difference. I bought this one and really like it. Would reccommend.

As far as I know, they are the same except for the slight price difference. I have noticed that sometimes the same product can be listed more than once on Amazon with similar, slight price differences; often, both listings have the same seller! I usually buy the one with the lowest price.

they do not have any difference... both do not have a digital display ... only the oldest model has.

ASUS Zenbook did not work. I returned it. I got a lenovo i7 and like it a lot. But I do not know if it is X1. It is not with me at this time.
