Does anyone on the forum own one of these things or has some knowledge of them?

Check here: http://www.amazon.com/Asus-7%25201d-Celeron-Processor-Preloaded/dp/B000YG646Y/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1203651091&sr=8-1

I like the size, price, features, and portability, but don't want to jump into one until I learn more about these. I just "discovered" it.

Thanks.

    You should do a search on it. I know there's been at least one thread fairly recently about it.

    This thing reminds me of the first Timex computer. My gorilla hands would not be able to type quickly without asdfionmgh erxctyrtas l;ertytyerrtsd.

    The above confusion was caused by hitting two keys when the intention was to hit one key. Translation.......adding extra letters.

    They are pretty cool and very capable for their price. I've had about 10 minutes to play around with one and for what it offers, word processing, internet, email, etc. it does it very well. It's gotten a whole lot of very good reviews as well.
