i got my eee pc saturday, and as much as i love it and find it very useful, it's not so great if you get eyestrain from staring at backlit monitors. but it's a great little unit to take to a coffee place and work away from your desk.
i will admit, though, that the tiny keyboard is rough to use - and i'm only 5' 3" with hands in proportion - so i got a thin standard keyboard with no 10key on it to carry along, and that works very well so far
