I haven't seen any experience commentary here on the list, but have seen 
interest like yours.  I too would like to hear any actual experience.  
I'm thinking of getting the notebook they are selling for ~$500.  For my 
wife to have email, word processing and a 'modern' notebook for only 
$500 seems like a nice idea.
