I have to agree. For the money I decided to get a really nice ASUS IEEE
laptop with the extra memory. The thing can run some pretty cool stuff if
you are patient. Also, Amazon has released the Kindle software for the PC
which I have loaded up onto the IEEE. I don't get the same battery life or
experience, but I can view PDF's, watch movies, write code, and much more
for just a bit more money.
