fyi the linux actions show did a whole podcast reviewing this
mini-note...The really liked it especially the 92%full sized keyboard
compared to the dinky eee pc keyboard.  they said there is already a
linux ubuntu distro specifically for this thing.  It was a really long
podcast (and I listen to a looot of podcasts)...
