So any way, I vote my model the best of the rest (nov it's one drawback) but look forward to hearing what I'm missing from the rest of you. As an aside, I can say that I am already excited about Toshiba's new offering but not because it's billed to be a portable office without wheels but because it's billed to be a portable multi-media station without the drag. I think it's called the Qosimo or close thereto. I know it doesn't fit in this category but just thought I would mention it and NO, I do not own stock in Toshiba nor do I know any one who works there.
Well stated. I'm not an attorney -- I'm a marketing professional at a software company and a heavy-duty blogger. I rely on the M205 as my sole PC and it works in just about every environment I need it to including:

  1. Office - plugged into a port replicator with 19" LCD flat panel and FS keyboard
  2. Home - at the computer desk or relaxing in my favorite overstuffed chair
  3. In meetings - either scribbling notes or hooked to a digital projector
  4. At the radio station where I do a weekly call-in talk show
  5. Internet cafes
  6. Traveling

I can run pretty heavy duty apps like Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks with no problem on this unit (1.5 Ghz Centrino, 512 MB RAM). I regularly have half a dozen apps running with no degradation in performance.

Finally, the screen on this Tablet rocks! :w00t: Super hi-res and a dedicated nVidia card.
