I use an Asus EEEPC 1000 HD, it certainly doesn't have the full power of a big laptop, but it does allow me to mix and edit the podcast on the train, and also fits in my bicycle pack.
I would recommend getting a true old fashioned hard drive based netbook if you want to use it for this purpose. Solid state is really nice for a lot of things, but the extra capacity of the hard drive is going to be useful if you are mixing a lot of resource heavy audio, and I still worry about the sheer number of writes on solid state drives. YMMV. That said, I don't think it really matters which netbook you get to do the work on, I know Acer and HP do good alternatives. Still, think about a hard drive based one if you are planning to do a lot of audio editing.
