I'd hit it.

I'm glad more PC makers are realizing the potential for this type of product.

Also, considering that you can regularly find Dell 15" laptops around the $500 mark, I'm sure this one will occasionally dip into the $300 range.

Agreed, fitting in an envelope is the only real world application these small laptops should be judged on.

This looks like a perfect machine for those who will use it to just RDP into their real machines, or connect to VMWare images. I might have to buy one

Actually, I really like the design of the Dell ultra-portable...If these had been out about 7 months ago, i wouldn't have gotten my current laptop. (It is a Vostro 1400, the case is very similar)

Edit: hmmm....this doesn't appear to have a CD-Drive....I retract my above statement

Where are they coming from? Same thing every time when someone talks about netbooks.

Looks good, but what about storage and IGP?
Will we even see it in europe?
