It's strictly a flash memory based machine, and flash is more expensive than hard drives. You're paying a premium for ruggedness and small format. Before the EEE PC's, you paid 1000 to 2000 for a micro laptop.

The one drawback is the screen attachment. It's the classic 2 point fold-up. Standard for a computer, but a pain for ebook reading. If somebody would make one of these things with a single joint the rotates 180 degrees, to mimic a tablet machine, the would have the perfect design. <Sigh> a dozen competitors have announced and not one with a single joint connection....
