@Rodfather
Such a device witha a much longer battery life could be very usefull. an ip phone via wimax, a media player, internet browser, online tv, voice activated personal asistant... practicaly anything which you can expect from a pc/pda/pmp.
But personaly I prefer bigger screens with keyboards. I want an "Eee Tablet PC with 10inch screen" :)

I've got to wonder, with properly aggressive power management, isn't four hours enough?

Could you actually USE such a device for four hours in a single day? I know I don't need even the fastest, most advanced mobile terminal for more than a couple of hours a day. (Technically, if it's more responsive, I'll use it for even less time, since it will have all the data I want as fast as I can handle it.)

I'd love one (I'm a gadgaholic :)) but the screen is just to small for prolonged use. Anything under 3.5 inches is hard on the eyes when you're in MS Word or Excel. Browsings not to bad at that size though.
