There has been a lot of discussion about this on IRC and at least one
ALUG member has already purchased one.

They look pretty neat, the only criticism I have is that the screen
needs to be more screen with less border (more screen in size and
resolution) and the battery life could be better.

I have a rather tired Fujitsu P1120 which is almost the same size, with
a better screen and a "real" hard drive and better (a lot better with
the extended life battery) battery life. Unfortunately it has a much
slower processor and a fixed 256MB of Ram.

My example needs a new battery, hard drive and PSU adaptor and I am
currently undecided as to whether to buy these bits or get the Eee
