Well...I have given in to BEER...um.. I mean peer pressure and Lisa & I picked up one of these guys today. This is cool, because it was actually her idea to get it. We are planning to use if for very light duty stuff. Things such as when we go away, we can connect to the net from the otel room, check e-mail, post to blogs, etc. One nice bonus was the MMC/SD slot on the side. Fits our camera cards so will be a HUGE bonus when we go somewhere. They had one out of the box at ME so both of us got a chacnce to try it out. For the spped is eems very resposnive adn even with my chubby fingers the KB isnt that bad. I do plan to paxka mouse with it... and while storage isn't the gratest an external drive or USB keys and you are off to the races. COuld also hook up an externa CD/DVD burner if need be then you can back up your pictures etc on the fly. Or an online account somewhere.... I am very impressed though that Lisa seems more excited about it then I am. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
