Yup guys, after two weeks with having no computer, my Tablet PC has arrived! Just have to get used to the laptop layout and the paranoia of scratching the screen with the pen now...

At the moment I'm using the ethernet scoket for the internet. Apparently Wi FI is supported across the area, but I couldn't find a connection at the time. I'll try again at campus later.
If you are goiung to use it on the bog, make sure you don't do too many processor intensive work (or games) - the fan tends to blow out a fair amount of hot air during high use,from the top (if in tablet mode).

Weighs 1.9kg. Easy enough to carry around with you all the time, not too good if you're carrying it in tablet view on your arm for more than a short period. My first charge lasted around 3 hours, though I wasn't paying attention to the battery time to be honest.
Weight of a good book? Yep, it's reached that stage. Size? Well, this is a 12.1", and it's still rather cumbersome to carry, like I said earlier, with one arm.
Hope that helps.

Oddly enough, one of the first things I did when I went wireless was chat to a friend on MSN from the bathroom! Wi-Fi rocks!

Yeap, I've always wanted that one to. Just think, if you were loaded you could have a tuch screen that folded out of the wall connected to you computer(s).
Anyway, as it runs with no fans (I'm guessing that as most tablets run fanless) is it nice an quiet?

Is it heavy? And how long does the battery last? I find tablets really, really desirable but I can't afford one and I'm a bit reluctant to get one until they are the size and weight of a good book.
