New Entourage Pocket Edge owner

[graymalkin]

I've been looking at tablets for about a year, comparing featured and prices, and I think the PE is darn near perfect for my needs.
I do a lot of writing, and was happy to discover the PE comes with Documents to Go. The fact that it has a tablet and eBook reader is a big plus as well for me, as I save a lot of my research as PDF, and can review my research notes on the reader while writing on the tablet. Like having a pocket version of my 2-monitor home PC! Looking for a skin at the moment to dress it up a bit!

One question to anyone who uses a keyboard with the PE: any brands you'd recommend? USB, or BlueTooth? I've been looking at several mini and folding models, trying to find one that's compatible with the PE.

While it's unfortunate that Entourage went out of business, it's rare to find a tablet for $99.00! (Yes, I found out about the HP Tablet sale a bit too late!) And, forums like this are a great way to share info on one of the coolest - if short lived - gadgets to come along in some time!
