After seeing an Eee in action at last week's meeting, and in view of a couple of upcoming trips where it might be an advantage not to have to lug even the relatively small Dell laptop, I gave in and got my own -- a black 4G Surf. The keyboard turns out to be even smaller than the folding one I use with the Palm, but usable, and the screen is nice and crisp, with good viewing angles. Thanks to these clever folks, I found the console and unlocked the hidden real-computer functionality, which turns out to include Thunderbird! I may try for some of my other favorite applications at the weekend.
