It would never replace my current computer, obviously, but I find it great to take to the university since it is really small. I've always disliked laptops because they are too bulky to carry around but at 7" the Asus is perfect. That said, I'd probably recommend waiting for the second generation. <br><br>Probably in the next few years I'll break down and buy an ebook reader since the screens are much better to read from like you say. Also, at 200+ books, I'm probably going to run out of shelf space soon.Robert S.

You should just take a week off and put them all on there. That's more or less what I did, despite not having the time to do that at all.MattTue, 05 Feb 2008 16:26:32 -0000http://www.willwilkinson.net/flybottle/2008/02/04/the-wave-of-the-future-not-not-very-good/#comment-3711985I dig tiny computers, but I really needed to spend less time reading backlit displays, which is one reason I really like the Kindle. I can email myself pdfs and whatnot, and then read them at my leisure, and eyestrain-free without having to remember to grab or find the printout.<br><br>How's the Asus? I think I probably want a tiny laptop eventually anyway.Will WilkinsonTue, 05 Feb 2008 10:01:48 -0000http://www.willwilkinson.net/flybottle/2008/02/04/the-wave-of-the-future-not-not-very-good/#comment-3711983You can send me your old books, I'll even pay for shipping. <br><br>I was going to buy an ebook reader but I decided to purchase a mini laptop (Asus Eee PC) instead, I just couldn't justify a device soley for book reading purposes, but a fully functioning computer, yes.Robert S.
