    That looks good, but as Mr. T says - it's all about the price, fool!

    Gotta love jumping on the band wagon :D

    I have been considering getting something along these lines, possibly the HP version, because i think that the 7" screen of the Eee would be just too small for me, which is why i was uncertain even about the 8.9, but a 10.2 might be just about perfect. It just remains to descover the price of the little beasty.

    My only beef with the Eee is that it's a hair too small, but this one just might be perfect. As everyone else has said, it's all going to hinge on the price.

    I love this thing, i think the size its perfect, and the option of a ssd or regular one is great. I will be waiting a bit more before getting one, cause theres going to be a big fight in this field...

    well now this looks good, if they can keep it under $500us then it will be well worth it and be a really strong contender

    It's a shame this looks so good, because my past experiences with the quality of ECS products mean I am completely unable to bring myself to buy one. I have been so dissatisfied with ECS that I would still get an Eee instead of this, even if this ends up costing half as much.

    How will the HDSPA/GPRS work? SIM slot in the 'back' or something?
