Yeah, the 30GB drive is nice, but there's no built in keyboard, and only QVGA resolution.  I like my SL-C3000 better.

If you do a search you'll see it's been talked about. I had a go on one the other day, it's great. QVGA on a tiny screen is no issue at all, it's an optimal resolution. Very expensive at the moment though, I'll wait until they go bust or bring out another machine and catch one when the price falls.

Soon as I find a machine regardless of OS that does video recording, music and ebooks at a good price, I'll switch.
