Maybe too small...

Ownership period: less than 1 year.

I got this about a year ago to use at work for general note taking and as a good little netbook for taking to starbucks and stuff like that... I have to say the fit and finish is terrific, the resolution on the screen is very nice and it is one of the more responsive netbook I've seen (after I "downgraded" to XP). However, screen is only 5.6" and after a little while using the computer, my eyes hurt. Also, you need a mouse with this guy. The trackpad (or joystick or whatever) is near the hinge and sortof requires you to be holding it in your hand to use. It's not terrible, but it's very difficult to perform drag-n-drops. The keyboard isn't much better, though I didn't get it to write long documents...
All and all, I'm not using it as much as I thought and my G1 ended up replacing a good amount of it's functionality. It's a great netbook in a pinch, but it's too small to really get comfortable with and use for a prolonged period of time. The big thing I can say to anyone looking into buying one of these is to try to find something of equivalent size, play with it first and make sure you're ready for the size. I'm giving it an 8 as the product is very good, but obviously not what everyone is looking for...
