The specs are realy a shame because it's "body" is perfect, normal sized keybord, hdmi, SD, SIM
Actually I managed to swap CPU on Acer Aspire after flashing it with mod BIOS (Pentium to Core i5). I could do that since CPU sits on the socket.
But as far as I know, all Netbooks have a soldered CPU which is impossible to replace.
If you do not mind opening the unit, another way to speed it up is replacing HDD with SSD.
As for RAM, you already maxed up what this ATOM CPU can handle.

Just found this:

It requires a removal of the keyboard but it seems straightforward otherwise.
