Hi All,

I'm looking for a very light weight computer for travel.  I saw the Asus
EeePC advertised.  It appears to have (with options): 

Custom Linux based on Xandros Distribution
Intel Celeron M 900 Processor
1GB DDR2 667MHz Memory
20GB (4GB built-in +16GB flash) SSD 
8.9" LCD 1024x600
1.3MP Web Camera
VGA Out
802.11b/g Wireless
10/100 Ethernet
Battery Life: Upto 3hrs 
Weight: from 0.99kg

I may replace the Linux with something else.  I expect I can use this
for browsing and documents plus connect to a larger LCD screen for at
home.

Has anyone used it?  Anything I should be wary of?

Ta.


John
