I got it in today. http://www.edwardcrosby.com/2008/10/13/its-here-dell-mini-9/
Also, I was in Super Target this past weekend and noticed they are selling the Asus Eee PC with Linux now for $300. It's a tempting deal to get for my niece for Christmas because it looks to be perfect for children. I noticed that the keyboard buttons of the Asus are smaller than the Dell's keyboard. I'm glad I chose the Dell. The Dell keyboard is small and takes some getting used to but there is no way I could have used the Asus keyboard with my fat fingers. One thing I am really impressed with the Mini 9 is the boot time. I clocked it at 30 seconds. That's pretty fast compared to Windows and even Ubuntu full (the lite version is installed on the Mini 9) on a standard PC. I think the SSD and the lite flavor has a lot to do with that.
