Anyone thinking about getting one? $200, I might be willing to check it out.

Nope.

Depends on the reviews.

Real life "we've actually used this thing in the real world" reviews.

Well of course... I honestly never heard of it before this thread... just saying it looks pretty cool...

Only if my employer buys me one.

If I can use it as a travel computer/web browser, and I can get a small travel keyboard to go with it, and depending on the reviews maybe. I keep realizing I need to replace my 2006 17" laptop with something a little more travel friendly and newer.

Waiting for the real life reviews to hit to see. If not I am expecting to get a netbook this winter

The 10s look awkward though. The people with ipads look like they are having issues using them and end up almost resting them like laptops. Might as well get a similarly priced and sized laptop that is better and faster.

Galaxy tab 8.9 may be the way to go.
