I just received my EEE PC. It is of course small, and for me typing on it properly is nearly impossible. I can still manage pretty well with several fingers.
I'm keeping the Linux distro on it but have added a start menu and additional workspaces, along with VLC media player and GIMP. IM, Email and Skype are my favorite travel pals. It's a great travel tool to replace my Dell Axim PDA that was stolen from me by a gang of kids in Romania. (Laugh, if you must!)
