The combo weighs a lot, but the device is functional netbook. Lots of pixels on that screen, and open source, too... Darn, no pre-order for us poor Canadians.
I would definitely get the combo. But if the tablet portion were to break it would only cost $299 to replace, since I'd already have the keyboard. I would of course be very careful and not handle it in such a way that the screen might pop off.

I hope it will be available in Canada in the near future, and if so, that they don't pull one of those "not available in Quebec" stunts. Those are no fun.
