If I were to buy one, it would be primarily for word processing on a plane or hotel room. Is it any good for that? The Poquet PC is a neat thing and I seriously considered buying one. I could probably live with the keyboard and learn to touch on it, but I found the screen to be too small/dark. Also, the accessories, e.g the serial port, is bulky. I ended up with a Zenith minisport instead, It's another kind of machine, but still pretty portable. And much cheaper..
