Best Buy stores actually have the machine on display, connected to the
Web, so you can give it a try there.  The keyboard is pretty tiny.

There are now lots of machines coming out in this category.  HP, Dell,
Acer and various others have products here.  The Acer machine is on
display, connected to the Web, at Circuit City stores.  The keyboard is
decent.
