I've had two and bought one for my brother as a gift.

I've got mixed opinion on these things.

First, love the portability. I took a trip to NYC an only carrried my netbook in a backpack. I posted my pictures each day to a website for friends and family. I also carry the thing to diners and such to browse the web when I'm out. Not so hot for typing long documents as the keyboard is small. Plenty of processing power for Office, email and internet.

Not so lucky on quality or dependability. I had problems with both units and have put the final one in a drawer.

I'm really waiting for the rumoured Apple tablet. I'm a mac guy and would prefer something with OSX.

If you do get one, make sure you get the 10" screen. It's 1024 wide, so most every website will display properly on screen.
