It's a fascinating idea, So, but a bit limited as yet.
Time will tell. It has the possibilty of being a real game changer. Brilliant for all sorts of things video, webcams, small servers, wireless boosters, firewalls routers etc etc. Going to keep my eye on this one. Think I'll be buying one.
I can see it being handy, but not yet a desktop, or laptop, replacement.

At least it would fit in your pocket ;D
True, except for the screen and keyboard. :)

Ah, but its designed to be accessed remotely :)
Looks a great idea.
I have a similar (but quite a bit more expensive) miniature pc which is a "fit-pc slim" which uses only 6 watts of power and works nicely as a web, email and squeezebox music server even though it only has a 500MHz processor. It is running gentoo linux at the moment and supplied with with gentoo and ubuntu installed.
Apparently the new models ("fit-pc2", 1.1 & 1.6 GHz processors, 9W power) should also work as a video server (I don't have one so don't blame me if they don't!).
