Alsokeep in mind that a full keyboard is going to limit how compact the laptop is. If that doesn't matter to you and you want a full keyboard, I'd say go for it, but if you want something small I would recommend learning the laptop layout which isn't that difficult. I even figured it out and people on this list can tell you that I'm not exactly a pro. Just my thoughts on the matter.
