I installed CM7 on my NC and use it mostly for email and to look at the occasional spreadsheet and document. I work with a web based application and it has not presented any problems. Sometimes I wish I had a stylus because of my fat fingers but nothing serious enough to make me buy one.

I was in a Best Buy yesterday and fooled around with the Galaxy they had on display. It is very nice with a good form factor. However, I didn't find it did anything that my NC could not do.

I guess it depends on what you do for work. I wouldn't work on a long document with it but it's fine for editing, reviewing and making changes. Hope this helps.
