Hello people,
I'm gonna buy a new Netbook, I want it to be 10inch screen, at least 2 GB of ram, and a good processor.
any suggestions? what's the best place to buy from?

Netbook and a good processor? I'm not sure you could find something above a 1.6 atom.

I own a Lenovo Ideapad S100 Netbook.
It has 2GB DDR3 Ram, 320GB HDD , an Intel Atom N455 1.66GHz with 10.1" LED Screen (Which looks really good, unlike other netbooks that look cheap) I got it for $269 + VAT from PC and Parts.
I am very happy with it and have not used my desktop since I got it.
The keyboard is very comfortable and so is the touch-pad. It has 3x USB 2.0 ports and also it runs very cool.
However I found the speakers to be cheap since they don't have any bass and the sound is really annoying but don't forget that this is a netbook and not a notebook so that is very acceptable.
I would really recommend this netbook for anyone. It's cheap and performs very well even though it's an atom and only 1.66GHz.
It's also available in 4 colors : Black , Blue , Red and White.
Hope I hope I found what you are looking for :)

I did try to run Beini and the network card didn't get detected.
It's a RealTek 8188CE.

how long can the battery go?

I have the battery profile at "High performance" with maximum brightness and it lasts 4hours.
If I run it on "Power saver" it will last up to 6hours.
Note that the netbook that was shipped to me had an extended battery.(If you ordered from PC and Parts yours would have one too.)

What are your usage patterns on both plans? What do you run? What is the CPU usage average estimate? Is it always idle, under load, or mixed?

Mixed.
I use Google Chrome with lots of tabs , Windows Live Messenger and Windows Media Player.
By running these programs I use my computer very fast and the atom does max out some of the time.
