I'm impressed with the specs of this thing, I wish there were more specifics though. Anyone know which flavour of Linux? Does anyone know what the SD card reader will support? SD is coming out with higher capacities all the time but it takes a different reader. I was impressed at the inclusion of the web cam, not that I see myself using such a thing but for an all-in-one solution it's a nice touch.
I would appreciate a full technical review from anyone who snags one of these babies before they are all gone. Call me Mr. Doom and Gloom but I suspect that once these are gone, they will take a while to get back in stock. The buzz on the Net is pretty high on these, I did a search and found lots of people interested in them. Thanks again for the heads-up Mark!
