It is nice, but personally I would rather spend the over $800 on a real
laptop that has a full keyboard handy and wouldn't weigh much more and
have a bigger screen besides (not to mention larger HD, memory, and more
capabilities). Again it is nice, but I tend to think it is a bit
pricey when you can't load regular software on it (by the looks anyway).
And has other limitations.
I do wonder how long the battery lasts though. They don't mention that.
Since it has a HD, I suspect it won't last past say 4 or 5 hours, if
that. Especially if you do much wireless surfing.
